Type 9 gearbox bolt
Can anyone tell me the size and thread of the single bolt that fixes the gearbox mount to the bottom of the box itself?
Thanks

M10 std
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I am pretty sure it is!

Got one in my hand --- it is not the usual M12x1.5 seems to be M12x1.75 BUT I have a feeling it just might be 7/16" UNC

Found a M12x1.75 die nut and it won't screw on to it easily by hand but the pitch appears correct according to thread gauge---- I haven't
got decent calipers to hand to check the dia accurately.

I answered a thread ages ago with the same question, my memory must be failing, I measured the original ford wierd bolt here at my computer - perhaps
a search on the same title will find the thread, about the thread!
Sorry if I mislead you

Std M12 metric coarse is 1.75 pitch surely
