Measurements bolts torque tube - gearbox; gearbox mounts

Post by TheUglyDuckling » 05 Jun 2015 11:28 am

Hi all,

once again the mysterious nuts-and-bolts-eater has paid my workshop a visit and I am now missing the 4 bolts that connect the torque tube to the gearbox and the two bolts for mounting the gearbox to the car.
Searching the forum only turned up that the torque tube bolts are M12 x 1.75, socket head caps; but I need the length (an strength...) too; same for the gear box mounts.

Hope you can help me!

Flo

Man, just find the old ones or pinch them back - they can't be far - you must have put them in a safe place ;-)

:lol: it is entirely possible that I chose a really smart place too keep them safe - would not be the first time I was smarter than me.

But I fear they went the same way the pistons for the B200Ft went - when the owner of a Citroen DS collected his parts after getting kicked out of the workshop...

Ah well, I'll find a way - the little bastard has to be up and running next week for the GLP next Saturday...
