Hey fellas I have a 3 rib bus tranny that has the three bolt throw out bearing sleeve. My tranny did not come with bolts or studs and I am in need of them,, can’t find a bolt to fit or studs anywhere, help!!!!???

It should be a common M6 stud, 20-25mm long, Ace hardware perhaps?

I think the threaded holes in the trans are M7. If you are in an isolated area with no vendors of M7 studs/bolts, you can get them online at, for instance, https://belmetric.com/

Now that you mention it M7 does ring a bell, please disregard my previous advice.

7mm was right. Auto parts only not at ACE. O’Reillys saves the day. Thank you all!!!

if we are talking the steel sleeve the TO slides on, the fiche gives the stud as 7mm x 32mm. It does not give the pitch.

Part N 014 449 2 up to 213 2 194 781

washer 7N 012 134 2

lock nut N 011 007

After 1973 they used a 7mm bolt x 15 mm long

Part N 040 203 3

Weddle has them https://weddleindustries.com/products/H-BM7X15H/H-BM7X15H M7 x 1.0 x 15mm

says use with specific lockwasher # H-WM7-STL
