A65 Clutch Bolts

[Mike Farmer]

  :)Hi all

A quick couple of questions for you to mull over if you would.

Referring to the enclosed photo. I know the bolts on the rear of the clutch basket should be wire locked but I cant find a definitive answer to whether they have washers under them. I'm aware space back there is very limited and don't want to get this wrong.

Second question Where can I get the "wire lockable" bolts.

Your input greatly appreciated

Hi Mike,
            No washers required and have you tried SRM, they are oos but a phone call might turn some up.

Hi Bess

Thanks for that.
Yes Tried SRM and although they advertise them they are out off stock and "nothing ordered". So I'll carry on looking. Its a long way off the point of needing them for this particular job so no problem. What thread are they.

Hi Mike,
            2 BA 1/2" long. Plenty on ebay that need drilling

easy enough to drill 1/16 or 2mm diameter hole either through the head or across a corner if you take it steady with a drop of oil. as I remember, no washer as can with a bit of run out rub mating parts

Brill. Just done the first couple earlier this morning. Waiting for other bolts to arrive. Don't think I'll take it up as a hobby.
