    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has a source for an engine mount bolt.

It's the topmost bolt that goes through both front engine mounts and through the engine case. The one I have is about 8.125 inches long, and I need one that's more like 9 to get the bolt through the case savers and get the bolt on securely.

Thanks.
William
 
Did you measure the bolt size and thread pitch? Your local hardware store might have something that would fit.
 
If they don't have it at the hardware store your best bet would be something like a "tractor supply" type store.

You are talking about the long one that is threaded on both ends with the middle section shanked right?
I would definitely try the tractor supply.
