 |
|
What is the thickness of the hex portion of the gland nut for a T-3 automatic??? I have some T-1's, but they are thinner. They are 6mm.
I need the dimension, so I can make some more. I sold my last one and have lost my notes that had the dimensions.

If you can't get the info somewhere else, the ISPWest website says they have them in stock. They might give you the dimension if you called. |

Is this the measurement you're looking for?

I still kick myself. I had a motor from an automatic that I pulled the torque converter, flex plate, flex plate bolts, and special gland nut – and threw it all away! Oh, to be young and dumb...
Energy is truly wasted on the youth.
