Does anyone know the specs on the bolts that hold the U-joint straps into the rear yoke? I'm going to get some grade 8 bolts today for it but the truck and bolts arent anywhere close to me....

also, the thread pitch and size of the cooler line fittings that go into the radiator? I'm getting some plugs for those holes as I wont be needing them anymore. I have to get to the fastener place as soon as I get a chance so please let me know.

 

off topic:

Do you have any pics of your cooler lines? How did you run the tubing?

 

hERE DUDE....5/16 - 24x1.3 bolts

 

you da man...

do you happen to know the size for the radiator fittings? 'm pretty sure its just NPT stuff but I dont know the size.

 

i just so happen to have 4 of these bolts left over from my new slip yoke install if you can't find em'

 

Hmmmm...hang loose'

 

There's 2 diffrent ones available....either 9/16 x 18 or 5/8 x 18x 13/32

 

I had some -6AN hoses made up with fittings on one end and none on the other. the end with fittings will just thread on to the adapters on the trans case with some 45* ends and the one end will just slide and clamp onto the cooler ends. the hoses will be routed outside the frame rails in order to keep them away from header heat etc etc... and a little bit cooler. Its pretty simple. I'll get pics when the whole thing gets installed this weekend.

 

what would I need to ask for just to get some plugs for the holes??

 

jUST GO TO YOUR LOCAL HARDWARE STORE AND ASK FOR SOME 9/16 OR 5/8 PLUGS
