Guest Spike Kavalench Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 My mechanic wants to install longer bolts to pass through both sides of the oil cooler, using 3 3/8 x 5/16” od .058 wall thickness bushings, in order to spread the load of the cooler and prevent cracking of the one tab that was originally attached to the cowl using 6 short bolts. Is this a good idea and if so, where can I source those long bushings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yetti Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Mine has the spacers. I think they are standard AN hardware. They are a PITA to install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Most installations use the long bolts. For bushings buy aluminum tubing from Spruce. Clarence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
