Where to buy replacement banjo bolts

I did the same thing a few months ago. Ordered this as a replacement. https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/pr...asp?RecID=5088

id suggest OEM before spending 25 bucks on a cheap aluminum fucking bolt.

now if it was priced appropriately at around 5 bucks with $2 shipping... i might say otherwise.

Holy shit. I didn't even realize it was that much. I paid like $8 for mine from the same site. Mine was blue though. I guess there's a $17 up charge on red... I would just get OEM like Lyger said then.

I am having trouble finding an OEM replacement. my local mazda dealership doesnt have them and i cant find it anywhere online either.

doesn't have them or that they are no longer available?

I've checked about 5 other websites and none of them have an M16x1.5 banjo bolt for under $13. Banjo bolts are just expensive. This is the cheapest I've found.

Not many places carry banjo bolts, and one of this size is really rare. So, it looks like you'll just have to pay up for one.

is it an S4 or an S5? there's a difference between those 2 banjos as well. if it's an S4 i can part with one, don't think i have any S5 banjos left though.

Do yall even amazon?


They're also on ebay:

I wouldn't use aluminum banjo bolts. They're too easy to over-tighten and twist. I'd go with steel on this bolt.

Thanks Pvill! I ended up getting the one you linked from ebay.

Now.. can anyone tell me why it wont stop leaking? I snapped the stock banjo bolt from over tightening because it wouldn't stop leaking and its still leaking even with the new bolt.

did you use the crush washers on both sides of the fitting?
