Reply to "Saftey Wiring Ring Bolts"

Hi Bill,
Nice looking bolt, the washer is heavy and I would guess would be to use it so as not to marr the face of a part with a machined spot face. you would have to look at the stack up height of the bolthead and washer because I had to squeeze the ring gear out with the carrier, that extra bit may result in the carrier not being able to go back.
The length could be a problem were as the ARP bolts are flanged on the bolt adding to the strength,measure your bolts from the end to the washer and it should be 7/8" to 1 " otherwise it's to short or long.
Do they have a tensile strength rating and is it comparable, this is most important.
Also to a point the extra cross drilling could weaken the bolt, thats a lot of meat in the center were the holes intersect removed.
