Hello everyone.
I am putting a new (reman) set of heads on my 2005 Ranger Edge. I don't want to reuse the manifold bolts, even if I can remove them in one piece. I see one is already broken before I even start. The OEM sets from Dorman (about $140!!! for both sides) seem to be the only vehicle specific option I can find. I do see a few "generic" stud sets with the correct size and thread pitch M8 x 1.25. Can I use those instead? Any advice is welcome.
