Load Lashing Rings - Replacement Bolts?

[elbandito57]

Hi all,

I have a T6 LWB Kombi which has 8 lashing rings as standard. I want to remove the 4 rings in the middle of the van which looks easy enough with a spline socket. Then I'm going to make a frame for transporting MX bikes and fix this frame in place using the original 4 holes that I removed the lashing rings from. I'm guessing on the underside of the flooring bed on the chassis rails there is a fixed nut that these screw into? Can anyone confirm this? And also confirm if the thread is normal or if I will have to find the specific thread for my replacement bolts.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, there's normal captive nuts fitted.

I got 70mm m10 bolts and cut to size 35/40mm is good. I preferred these as spline socket set is pain to find in the shed; 17mm socket or adjustable spanner much easier lol
