hi, does anybody know the right size bolts that should hold the back plate on to the radius arms? or can you just put any ones that fit in?

Check out the pdf shop files on Somerford Minis as they'll provide the information there.

*melons* me, how thick are the backplates on your car??!!

Correct size is:
1/4" UNF x 5/8" long.
SPanner size is 1/2" AF

5/16 UNF x 1" actually

Would recommend using a nyloc nut as well.

I assume we're talking about the nut and bolt combinations which attach the backplate to the radius arm.

P/N GHF103

My apologies, it is indeed GHF103 at 5/16 UNF x 1" long - I was looking at the front brake backplates by mistake.
I also misread the thread size - all-in-all it was a poor post!
