SupraTRD_MK4 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 What I would do is take a sample of the bolt for the gearbox to block assembly and get a longer bolt. You can measure the length of the stand where it mounts and then add the length of the block it needs to thread into and order accordingly. Just be sure to get flat washers with them as well. If you don't have the bolts, then thats another story. You don't need to buy the bolts from the state. Just make sure the thread pitch is correct with another bolt and measure accordingly for the length required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
and1c Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I cant measure mine until the weekend but can check for you then. If I recall correctly you dont want ones with a non threaded shaft as they need to tighten tightly from the engine stand to the casing. iirc you can use an old set of 2jz head bolts as they are the 12mm x 1.25 pitch from memory. The bolts need to be about 90mm long but that depends on your engine stand spider cradle bit (the depth of the bolt tubes) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_supra Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Those should be fine you'll need to buy washers as well as the thread will bottom out before the bolt head hits the stand (from what I've read). Another option is to get some threaded bar and some nuts and cut to length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
