Its impossible to find metric banjos at any stores in my area, I drove around for hours looking for one. Checked auto stores, specialty bolt supplier, hydraulic shop, etc.

Dealership is your best bet.

Or you can make your own, if you have a drill press.

I found the ends to build new ones with flexible line at a local nercedes truck parts center... They deal also in Hino and Fuso trucks. So you might want to try going to a few diesel truck parts suppliers and take the old one to match it up.. By the way Either Hino of Fuso one is actually Mitsutbishi so anyone stocking those brands should have metric.

Are you looking for the bolt or the banjo fitting that goes around the bolt?

Buy an m10x1.25 bolt at lowes and drill it out. I do it all of the time.

There are a few vendors who sell banjo bolts. Slowboy and Forced Performance are the ones that I used to replace my banjo bolts. FP also makes a high flow coolant banjo setup for turbo cooling which is outstanding (off topic, I know). You can also check your junk yards, and parts sites like dsmgraveyard.

If you go the route of making your own bolt make sure you get a bolt with a "shoulder" that will pass through about 70 - 90% of the banjo fitting it's self. The reason for this is the shoulder will stop the banjo fitting from moving around and insure that the banjo setup will seal tightly and correctly every timeon the first try. I make banjo bolts and fittings all the time on the lathe and if you want i can run you one off and drop it in an envelope, but you should be able to find one locally before i could even get one on it's way.

Back to the shoulder.. You may have to get a bolt that's too long to get a proepr shoulder, put a nut on the bolt then cut it of with a dremel or something and make sure to "round off" the edges where you cut the bolt, then remove the nut and the threads will be good enough to hold tight and if you get the burrs off it won't harm the head. YOu could also put a tap on instaed of a nut to better insure a good "re-thread" before putting the part into use... The reason i make mine most of the time is because i can't justify 5 - 12 bucks (and more in some cases) for a single bolt, i've seen porsche banjo bolts go for upwards of 24 dollars EACH for "OEM parts"

EDIT: one more thing LOL if you make your own bolt, cross drill the top hole first, this will make it easier to check your depth when doing the long hole down the shaft of the bolt keeping you from having to do it twice when you come out the top of the bolt head on try # 1 LOL b
