I am seeking the thread of the M10 bolts to fit a Jimny power steering arrangement to the G13A engine block on my Samurai please.
It does not appear to be M10x1.25.
Any assistance appreciated. Thanks.

It should be M10x1.25 Unless someone has messed the threads up.
The threads might just need chasing with a Tap.

If M10x1.25 doesn't seem to be the right fit, it's possible that you might need a different thread size. You could try checking the threading of the existing bolts or consulting a mechanic or hardware store for assistance.
Alternatively, you might want to look into getting a thread gauge to accurately determine the correct thread size needed for your application. Once you have the correct thread size, finding the appropriate bolts should be much easier.
