I need to identify the type of threading the OEM screws that get removed when installing an x-brace are. I have a Spoon X-brace but without screws so I need to ID the screws so I can order some replacement cap-head screws. Does anybody know what length the Spoon screws are as well? Thanks in advance.

If it's anything like the comptech, it uses the existing bolts that are already on the car. You take out 4 bolts, install the brace, re-install the bolts and torque them down.

The stock bolts actually won't work will this piece, the unit came with stainless steel cap head screws but I somehow seem to have misplaced them.

Take off one of the factory bolts, get a buddy to drive you to a decent hardware store, find a nut that fits and that'll tell you the threads. It's probably something like an M14 x 1.25 if it's like other honda crossmember bolts (don't quote me). I've taken off a number of crossmembers but, not an S2K crossmember (yet).

The honda bolts are typically special with thickened sections near the head to keep the crossmember from moving around.

That's just it, I'm too lazy to take off the bolt I was hoping someone knew just off the top of their head.

M10x1.25 x 30mm should do. They are Hex Head Cap Screws too. They should be zinc coated too.

(And that was off the top of my head )

The manual shows that size, M14 and M12 all in that area of the subframe. Without know specifically which bolts get pulled I wasn't sure which ones it might be.

That is the point, I knew exactly what bolts he was looking for and exactly what the size was. I bet I even have a few out in the garage. In case you missed something, we manufacture an X-Brace and we have to source the bolts. That is why I know.

Thanks man, you're a life saver!
