Axle Bracket Bolt Part #

[SneakyBobinson]

So, I am in the process of gathering parts for a gearbox swap as mine is severely damaged. I have a new to me box on the way from Both Tips Performance. In the intermin, I am attempting to identify the axle bracket nut part # as the service manual states that they must be tossed after being removed.

Does anyone happen to know the part #? Also, are there any other parts that would be a good idea to swap other than the obvious clutch, slave cylinder, and possibly the flywheel?

Thank you!

I find Tasca and other online parts catalogs fairly useful when it comes to this:


Scroll down to the second diagram, item 8. Description is slightly confusing because it is the same part number as the one used on the steering column. Bracket is listed as well

W520102-S442 is the part# for the bracket nuts.
Flywheel bolts would also be technically one time use. Those are AV6Z-6379-A and you need 6 of those.

Reviving this thread for a quick question about the "upper mount" that this bracket bolts to. Last night I was replacing the bracket and the upper bolt is just spinning, can't get a torque spec on it. I need to replace the upper mount.

Has anyone done this before? I am guessing the axle will need to be pulled again?

Correct, that is the one I need to replace. The upper bolt probably has only 20 ft/lb on it, or less. I believe it has been in this condition for quite some time.

Not such a big deal putting the disposable bracket on, I can get to it with the intercooler piping on even, but it seems that bigger one will need more room to come out?

I can get the torque spec from the manual later today.

The only time I have removed/reinstalled it was with the engine out, so not 100% sure on how to do it otherwise. I would guess at a minimum hot side charge pipe off and passenger axle popped out so the bearing is out of its fit. Don't think you'd need to completely remove the axle though. With the bearing out of its spot, there should be enough room to wiggle the bracket out after it's unbolted.

I really appreciate your advice and the torque spec, thank you!
