bolt question

Post by lvlistchif » Fri Apr 20, 2007 7:00 am

bolts like the ones that connect your flywheel to your clutch, do they have to be special bolts or can i just go to a hardware store and get a grade a bolt to use?

you will probably want to buy the bolts specifically for that, ARP makes flywheel bolts..

a) does your hardware store carry metric fasteners
b) does your hardware store carry higher grades of metric fasteners

If you just grab any old bolt if it's not the correct grade you'll probably shear them off. There should be a number (ie 8.8, 10.9, etc) on the head of the fastener. The fastener you replace it with should have the same or higher number. If the number is lower or there isn't one then you shouldn't use it.
