Does anyone know the size of the nuts on the outer bolts of the front trans mount?
(1965 swingaxle)
The previous owner conveniently left them OFF!

M10 x 1.5, but you will want to find the smaller 15mm nuts, not the typical 17. The 17mm socket will not fit between the ribs on the nosecone. _________________ 1800 Type 4 Berrien 295

Outer nuts.... Trans mount to chassis connection by what OP stated not mount to nosecone.... Box/Open end wrench fits just fine if you can not get socket in there.....
