Bolt thread size help

Post by 365boxer »

Hi,
I need some help please. I am fitting a loader to my major and need to know the bolt thread sizes where this kind of equipment would mount. firstly up under the rear axle and on the sides where the blue chassis bars bolt on from the engine to the suspension ?

Hi Nick, If I understand you correctly.... where the side frame rails connect to the boss on the bell housing, are 1/2-13.

I normally run a bottoming tap down in the holes, this will let you get a standard 1 1/2" long(I think) bolt with a lockwasher in the hole.
