Alright two questions here..
1. Does anyone know the size and length of the engine block motor mount bolts? I just ordered some brown dogs but decided to retain my OEM block bracket, I've heard the bolts get fatigued and/or are bottoming out in the engine block before they reach their correct torque? I want to replace the bolts with some new fresh grade 8s of the PROPER length when I put the brown dogs in. From what I was told from BD, is that the bolts are 3/8s w/ 16tpi. I want to know the correct length I would have to get for both bracket sides (driver and passenger bracket bolts)
second question..
2. I am replacing my dana 30 pinion seal and yoke and need to know the correct torque on that pinion nut? For reference it has 4.88 yukons and an aussie locker, bad pinion angle killed the new seal so I'm replacing it with a new timkin seal and a much better condition yoke (polished and drilled out for u bolts) as I think my seal could possible have a groove worn into it. Changed my pinion angle so want to seal up this bad boy for the final time, im hearing anything ranging from 135 ft lbs - 250 ft lbs.... any help here guys???
Thanks in advance!!
