Frequently Asked Questions
What thread size is this bolt?
It's the standard crankshaft thread, 5/8" x 16 tpi Whitworth.
Will this suit all Mini crankshafts?
Yes, but before installing the flywheel, check that the bolt does not bottom-out on the thread, or more importantly that there is no swarf or damage inside that may otherwise affect fitment. If the bolt feels too tight on the thread, inspect the crankshaft thread before continuing.
Will this suit all classic Mini flywheels?
No, only the Verto style flywheel design, introduced in the early 1980s, which has a separate centre boss that attaches to the clutch cover. We also keep a bolt and washer to suit the early 'pre-Verto' flywheel.
What size socket do I need for the flywheel bolt?
These are 1 1/2" AF.
What is the torque setting?
Please see the instructions above.
