Bolt question
 
2 Attachment(s)
Probably a stupid question but I can't seem to locate anything in the manual; I have a 149 that came with the tiller gear box attached and I'd like to change out the hytran fluid before I attempt to start it. I took the gear box off and it appears several of the bolts are too long, does anyone know the length I need? Also if there is a resource out there on bolt specifics in general that you could shoot my way that would be great, several of them are pretty rusty and could stand to be replaced.

Thanks in advance guys

If are you putting the tiller back on? If not, the 3 lower are 7/8" when using the draw bar and the other 2 are 3/4"

Go here and put in your model number and any part will have the fastener size for it listed.

Bolt size
 
Please be very careful when installing those cover bolts. Be extra careful that the bolts are not too long. If the bolts bottom out in that cast iron rear end before they snug up the plate, the cast iron WILL CRACK, and that is ugly ! Don’t ask.

That's what I was worried about. Those bolts currently in there felt like they bottomed out and I really didn't want to crack anything by continuing to tighten them. Thanks again guys

Great job not getting carried off and taking your time asking questions before you go further than you are supposed to and tear something up. That's why I love this forum.
