A good rule of thumb for thread engagement is you want 1.5 to 2x the diameter.

I just got really confused because the question said the bar was infinite length, and the length was a variable in the equation.

Oh right right right gotcha:read:

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

while on the hardware topic, i noticed my 60 & 14b ruffstuff covers came with shorter countersunk bolts then what is on my 30 & 8.25 now. the bolts i recieved only thread into the housing about a 1/4-5/16" whereas the other ones go about 1/2" in. i dont like this.

The diff covers are beefy enough, so just weld around the edge and no more worries.

as long as you get 3 or 4 threads fully in you should be fine. if you're still worried about them, put a little loctite on the threads when installing it and they won't vibrate loose at all

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

what's the thread size of the bolts, ross?

in other news, my grandfather told me that someday I can have his lathe and tooling. it's pretty small and old. but a small lathe is better than no lathe. and tooling is better than no tooling.

I might leave work early (like 1 or 2) and try to get it all done first. I'll just have to come into work tomorrow morning like usual but no big deal.

Yep, don't you worry. I'll be pissed if I get it and then I'm stuck with that ratty-ass bench seat. So I'm holding you to it with the bucket-promise. haha
