Is this the correct bolt to secure the flapper box to the heat exchanger on a 914-6? Part number 901-211-631-00. Appears to be NLA. Paired with square nut.
It is what I removed from a pair of used flapper boxes I bought. I tried installing it on a new Dansk flapper / heat exchanger and it appears too short. Even if I try various clamps to compress the flange and close the distance.   |

I can check if a 4 flapper fits a 6 exchanger. Im sure i have those bolts to check. Im betting it is the Dansk flapper that is the problem. |

The bolt on my flappers is 32mm If the Dansk parts do everything else as they should a longer bolt will do the trick. If you choose to go with OE 6 flappers I have a pair of beauties Oh, one more thing. The bolt extends through the elongated hole. The square nut goes on the round hole side. The round hole side keeps the nut from turning. And one more. Put a flat washer on the elongated hole side to keep the clamp from getting bent. |
