Title: Billet ring gear bolts
Post by: Todd99 on March 25, 2014, 08:32:37 pm

I have a question are the bolts that hold the ring gear unto the flywheel left or right hand thread?

I heated them with a torch and broke them loose with a socket hex.  It was tough though.
My very first experience with them I stripped them out and had to weld bolts to the top of them to get them off and then order new bolts.
