got stranded last night. Clutch pedal lost pressure. need help plz. - Page 3

MANDALAY · 06-10-2009, 04:32 AM

Man buy a single one of Arron and measure it. I think it will save you a lot of heart ache unless some one with a 5 can help

fvillota · 06-10-2009, 07:52 AM

i guess i can do that too.

does the flywheel have a spacer?

MANDALAY · 06-10-2009, 10:08 AM

no thaat im aware off . EPC Show a gear and flywheel. I have a Toda which is a single unit

fvillota · 06-10-2009, 10:34 AM

because i have some sorta spacer that fell out and i have no idea id it goes behind or infront.

Redstar · 06-10-2009, 10:35 AM

I'm in the process of replacing my clutch, I'm not reusing my old flywheel bolts. I'll see if I can find time to measure one for you today.

In the meantime, can you take one of your broken bolts to a hardware store and see what nut threads on? That would at least give you the thread pitch.

fvillota · 06-10-2009, 12:32 PM

omg that would be great man. hope you get to. really going nuts with this.
when i get a chance i'll go and measure the tread.

fvillota · 06-10-2009, 06:04 PM

i got the bolts out today. im all set to buy the bolts and the clutch kit! all i need is the size and i'll be good to order.

Redstar · 06-11-2009, 12:35 AM

Here you go

I didn't have time to find the thread pitch, but you should be able to get that pretty easily.

fvillota · 06-11-2009, 01:19 PM

so the thread pitch and thread diameter i will find in the autoparts right/

Redstar · 06-11-2009, 03:10 PM

The autoparts stores around me suck for nuts and bolts, maybe yours are better but I wouldn't bet on it.

What I would do: take your broken bolt into a hardware store, go to the nuts and bolts isle, go to the metric section of that isle, find a nut about the right size and see if it easily threads onto the bolt, when you find one that does - bingo, there's your thread pitch.

Just looking at it, I'd guess it's somewhere around an M10x1.0 thread.

fvillota · 06-11-2009, 03:12 PM

i went to autozone today and all they told me was to put it through a lil chart thing and it'll tell me what it is.

i got it to screw smoothly all the way in and it said M10 - 1.25
is this the thread size and pitch?

what about the diameter?

Redstar · 06-11-2009, 03:39 PM

M10 is the diameter = 10mm

1.25 is the thread pitch, 1.25mm/thread

i told you to do that silly

fvillota · 06-11-2009, 04:18 PM

i know i know.

well what the heck guys! lol i keep telling the guy and he says im missing the diameter wtf?!

i think i rather have the bolts break again and buy em from toyota then have this fool email me. lol

im gonna try calling.

um.. do all flywheel bolts come with that lil fat space before the thread or do they need that too?

yea yea.. i know jannie i know. lol thanks

The one's I've seen do. That sholder is what the flywheel rides on. You need it.

The guy might want the diameter of that, you should be able to measure that pretty easily.

fvillota · 06-11-2009, 04:40 PM

who should i do that to be able to get the most precise measurement

Redstar · 06-11-2009, 05:38 PM

^ Really?! This is easy, don't overcomplicate it.

Find somebody with a set of calipers (why don't you have your own? try autozone again?), use cailpers to measure the bolt sholder, read what caliper says = diameter.

When/if you do get the ARP bolts, please post your part number and all the dimensions in a seperate thread for anyone else who might need that info.
