    I need a slightly longer bolt for the exhaust clamp as its about 5mm too short which makes bolting it in a pain in the backside. I've already had to re-thread the clamp twice now due to stripping the thread!

    Existing bolt has a thread of 45mm and a total length of 52mm.

    So when ordering do we measure total length or to the shoulder of the bolt?

    Only thing to be careful of is the thread pitch as a lot of the bolts can be fine pitch
