So somewhere in my stash of bags, I lost the little bolt that holds the speedometer drive gear to the transmission.
Where can I get one of these? What's the threading/pitch on that little bolt? Note, it has to have that little tip to stick into the side of the angle drive casing thingy. |

I'm pretty sure it's 8x1.25. Just a standard bolt, with the modified nipple.
Can you post a pic? I suspect Dr. Evil has bags of them. I probably have a few running around here, but can't even guess at where to start looking for one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) You can pull the rear cover pretty easily to get a helicoil installed. Just make sure you're familiar with the order of parts for the reverse gear. That's the only parts you have to deal with when pulling the rear cover. |

That's the only parts you have to deal with when pulling the rear cover. Is there supposed to be a helicoil in there? I don't have the bolt (lost it) to take a picture of it. I was just looking at the parts in the PET stuff and I saw the bolt and washer (expected that of course) but also so that there is a threaded insert that goes in there also. Pulling the rear cover might be my only option though to get a good look at it. Can pulling the rear cover be done with trans installed? How many pieces are going to come flying out all over the ground when I do that? :-) I may have to unbolt the exhaust muffler (triad) from the heat exchangers to get some working room I suppose. Note: I'm a weekend mechanic. Haha!! |
