What bolts for xt m750 v brakes?

I think I know the answer but pics online are inconclusive. Is it the same bolts as say m950 xtr brakes?

Never had a pair of the M950 brakes, but very similar from the pictures I looked at. Very small head on the bolt to clear the linkage, and also a very small washer that is easy to loose. The little shoulder is the important part on the M750 though. The shoulder locates the arm as it doesn't really fit snug on the brake post the way most brakes do.

I lost some of the bolts for a pair and improvised as they were slightly beat up. I wound up cutting countersunk holes into all the arms to use standard metric countersunk hardware. If you wanted to do something crazy like that I can confirm there is enough material to remove. I had no trouble getting the bolts to sit flush.

Yes, m739, m750, m760, m950 etc. plus the washers which are very thin. I've got dozens if you need any.

I thought that would be the case. Thanks. Not going to grind them down as suggested an option.

When you say dozens, is that washers or bolts or both? I do need some washers for some 950 brakes as it goes.

 

[Twozaskars]

Both.

M739 are silver and M950 series are black.
