JohnK Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Yes, change them. The Toyota workshop manual states non reusable part and IIRC they are stretch bolts. I think TRD3000 (Chris Webley?) had some for sale not so long ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 They don't look like stretch bolts I know of people who have re-used them and no-one's lost a flywheel yet. At £10 a bolt it's surely tempting to reuse them -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean1933 Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 well now i dont know what to do, people have told me to replace them...but PAul Whiffin said not to bother and now Ian...anyone else got a view? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeT Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 i searched on this over on supraforums and the general consensus was, yes replace them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandan Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I can definitely tell you if they can be re-used from a stress point of view and whether they're stretch bolts as long as someone can give me a few pointers on the bolt itself? Do they have any particular markings on them? Anyone know the material? What is the thread size? Can someone post up a pic of one aswell?

colsoop Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I didn't replace mine, the clutch and flywheel have been on the car for 14 K @ bpu. I didn't know they should be replaced at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
