Anyone have a spare Trans mount bolt

NICE 69 S · 05-12-2017, 09:15 AM

Sent two of these out for plating and only got one back. '69 911 front trans mount bolt. The PET gives a P/N of 901 305 317 00. 12mmX1.5 pitch. I would really like to have either one KAMAX bolt or two from another manufacturer (DEVA, VERBUS etc.). Pics below. Thanks in advance.

Obsessive, detailed oriented, uncompromising. Weird? Who isn't?

Walter,
Not concourse by any means. Would just like to have two of the same bolts, like it was when I took it apart a couple months ago.

Send your picture and description to Brian Farmer at Einmalig in Huntington Beach. He has every OEM bolt on the planet plated and ready to go.

Well, functionally the only thing special about the tranny bolts are the pointy end, which helps - I assume - to center the carrier's hole and avoid cross threading (which is an all too real possibility). So which manufacturer made it is not relevant to its function. Does Pelican sell this part? It looks shorter than the ones I use for my 915s.

I thought your weird comment was funny.

But once you're into a resto project that's being done right this kinda stuff being wrong in the end buggs the restorer alot.

Order one from your local dealer!!!

When hanging the engine - leave both the trans support and engine hanger slightly loose when you hang the engine so you have some movement on both brackets to get the bolts lined up easily. Then when all four hanger bolts are tightened up go back and tighten the brackets to the engine and trans.

petercory and boosted79, sorry about any confusion here. The point is I would like to have either one KAMAX bolt, or any two other (VERBUS, DERA) early original bolts. I am sure the dealer could sell me the bolt, but it wouldn't be the same. This car has been in my garage for 42 years, and I just like to put it back together the way it was when I took it apart a couple months ago.
I would gladly pay anyone with an early bolt exactly what the dealer gets for one, plus shipping, if they have what I originally asked for.

Yes, I know, sorry i can't help you. Just pointing out a way to get those trans hanger bolts in easily w/o worrying about cross threading if the bracket won't line up right. Call these guys, they probably have an early bolt or two. Henry will fix you up.

My most recent expedition into these bolts is they are NLA in that size but are available slightly longer for G50.
After several uses the threads begin to wear out compared to the female side which looks to be a harder metal. Maybe the force used to install is the reason, I usually use an impact but have gone to battery powered nut runner then tighten by hand.
