Clutch Spring Bolts

Hi,

Since the clutch spring bolts are NLA I wondered what else could be used instead ?

Thanks

Cheers
Paul

I'll have to figure this out soon too, when I assemble the clutch back.
The cross print of my bolts are in a terrible state.

I'm pretty sure any standard screw, countersunk head, with the right length will fit.
There are normally prisonner shims, but any shim with similar size will do the job too.
I'll retrieve the original ones and drill them slightly bigger to fit the new screws.

This is all assumptions, I'm looking for advices too :smile: .

Thanks Kalim - I'll try a few bolts and see if I can find a solution - I'll post here if I do.

Cheers

Yep, They are different, I had to look for the part number, the first set I bought didn't work.

These definitely work, I have them in 2 engines and no probs http://www.partzilla.com/parts/detail/y ... 02-00.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
