Tackling what I thought was a bad throw-out bearing on my Mk I Stag, I've discovered that some previous mechanic left out some of the gearbox to flywheel housing bolts. The result is fairly predictab

Hi Randall The Dowell bolts are just 3/8 UNF bolts with a plain shank long enough to go through the back plate of the engine and most of the way through the bell housing (flywheel housing), the head

If they're ordinary bolts, why do they have 6 digit part numbers rather than standard hardware numbers ? There are even two other ordinary 3/8 UNF bolts used, which do have the "standard hardware" n

Hi Randall I do appreciate the necessity for the bolts to be a good fit for the location of the gearbox input shaft and have been known to both, preach the necessity to always use the dowel bolts, an

Hi Graham : I guess that would include the "professional" mechanic that I had to the job on my Stag a couple years ago. I intend to tell the shop owner about it next time I see him, as he's a "friend

Randall, have you considered that the dowel bolts were never there in the first place? While I did read that you had multiple bell housing bolts missing, I have good reason to believe that the dowel

Hi Kai I have had many cars from 1965 2000 Saloon to 1977 2500S saloon (have worked on a 1978 registered 2500S which must have been one of the last) and all had dowel bolts installed, I would guess t

That is an interesting theory Kai, however, my late production ''76 TR6 had the dowels when I did it's first clutch job in 1981 when the fork pin broke. Jeff Johnson

It's certainly possible that some were deliberately built without the dowel bolts, but I doubt that applies to my Stag. It's a very early car, the SPC I have was clearly updated multiple times after

When I wrote that post, it originally said," had and still has the locating dowels", however, when I proof-read it I thought the language to be somewhat stilted, so I deleted the present tense. And y
