Well. I have another stuck bolt on my TR6: the crankshaft end bolt. I have two of the radiator bolts installed and am holding it from turning with a screwdriver between these. I have sprayed the bolt

Don't know if this will work for a TR6, but on my TR3 I just wedged a big wrench to the frame and hit the starter...viola...loose bolt. Good Luck -- Bill Pugh 1957 TR-3 aka Casper TS16765L /// triump

Lose the adjustable wrench for this project. The torque involved in removing these is much more than the design strength of an adjustable wrench. As Bill Pugh suggested, get a socket of the correct

Another solution might be to buy a big 'strap wrench'. I got one for removing stuck lathe chucks, it works quite well. Believe it was a set of two on sale at Sears for $20 back around Christmas. On m

Thanks for all the advice. I figured out to put it in 4th and put the parking brake on. Came back to my computer and had several suggestions to do the same. Went back out and discovered that I did in

Glad to hear about your success! As for the end-float of the crankshaft, if you can lever the crank noticeably with a screwdriver, then it's time to replace the thrust washers. I believe the end flo

Thanks Jeff. I'm at about 59k so the mileage looks about right for thrust washers. I noticed the movement when I gave the end bolt a few whacks in an attempt to loosen it. Was able to lever the crank

Message text written by "Hugh Fader" They're cheap so buy a set of standard and a set of +5. Then you can put in either 2 standard, two +5 or one of each to get the end float you want. I used one of

I have to say I disagree with Dave on this point. Don't put off changing the thrust washers, because you can't afford the rest of it. Badly worn TW can fall out in the TR6, which leads to almost ins
