Starter motor d bolt

[Jim-Bob]

I took the starter motor out of my bus as it was a bit knackered ,the d bolt that hold it in place snapped on removal turns out it was welded together :roll: , I bought a new bolt but its too short heritage only list 2 bolts the other ones even shorter.

What length should the bolt be?

You don't have to use a D bolt,you can get a normal bolt to fit in.Measure the length you need ,go to a motor factors or some sort of bolt suppliers and fit that.You may need to get someone to hold the starter side of the bolt with a spanner to stop it spinning as you tighten it up.

Jim do you know what length of bolt you need I have a few knocking around, let me know length and diameter of thread and I will see if I got one to suit. PM the sizes.
