Dowel bolt
TRF part #132872
Moss part # 322-545
Rimmer part # GHF106

These were originally dowels - not dowel bolts - I=E2=80=99m surprised to no=
w not find the dowels listed anywhere - glad I still have some

Not using the dowels or dowel bolts can result in all sorts of premature clu=
tch and throw out bearing wear - degree of premature wear can range from lit=
tle to none up to very severe - depending on how far off alignment of parts i=
s without them.

Cheers,
