7.3 injector hold down bolts
Ok im looking at buying some new injector hold down bolts and i guess there is a 48mm bolt and a 39 mm bolt what one is for a 97 PSD???
|
i hope you're refering to the length. one is longer and the othere is shorter. why do you want new bolts?
|
the olds ones are stretched and dont want to risk one snapping off,
|
oh ok. well you need both lenghts. 8 of the 48mm and 8 of the 39mm.
|
why do i need 8 of both, there is only one that holds the injector down???
|
there is 2 on each injector. when you remove the injector you only remove one. and the ring slides off of the othere one.
|
How do we know they are stretched?
|
i have them out of the truck right now and i can clearly tell they are stretched pretty bad
|
well it's a 10mm head. you don't need to torque them down to 680 ft/ lb. so they really shouldn't be stretched...
|
its the first time iv had them out of the truck since iv owned it i really donk know much about the history of the truck but im pretty sure some one over torqued them in the past
|
i'm not saying you did it. being that small of a bolt it should have broke before they got stretched out.
|
they were kinda tight when they came out but im wondering if someone stretched them putting them in
|
it's a possibility.
|
not all of them are stretched but 6 of them are that i can tell. Where is the best place to get new ones becuase im not going to risk one snapping off, i dont think they will if they are torqued to spec but i dont want to take the chance
|
|
i went to my local dealership and they had them in one day
