halllon, I hope you're the one who's wanting these, I cannot imagine that don1 is still waiting.

 

I've just had a look in the workshop manual for you.

 

It describes undoing two of these bolts so a puller can be used to remove the pilot bearing which is in the end of the crankshaft.

 

This is the procedure for fitting the two new bolts which obviously should be the same for the others.

 

Torque the bolts down evenly a little at a time.

 

Torque to 49Nm (500kgf.cm , 36ft.lbf)

 

Then tighten an additional 80-100 degrees

all tourqe settings are here:)

 

Flywheel to Crank: Tighten to 36 ftlb in a crossover pattern, then tighten each bolt another 90 degrees again in pattern. If you are doing this with an aluminum flywheel, make three passes at 36 ftlb before the 90 degree tighten, the aluminum will compress a little (AMHIK).

Pressure plate to flywheel: 14 ftlb (I recommend 20ft-lbs or more). (I normally use a 12mm little wrench and tighten as tight as I can. If these back out, your clutch will be toast within a few miles)

Transmission to engine: 17mm head bolts, 53 ftlb; 14 mm head bolt, 29 ftlb.

Starter terminal is 48 inlb (Notice the units!)

Starter bolts: 29 ftlbs

Release Cylinder: 9 ftlbs

Clutch housing covers: 9 ftlbs

Center support bearing mounts: 36 ftlb

Intermediate shaft to transmission bolts: 41 ftlb

Rear transmission mount inside bolts: 10 ftlb

Rear transmission mount outside bolts: 19 ftlb

Shifter pivot bolt: 14 ftlb

Shifter plate bolts: 69 inlb

Crossmember bolts: 9 ftlb
