How thick are these bolts? I’m amazed they don’t bend…BYRNEY1984 wrote: ↑21/11/22 7:34 Yeah remove the mounts then put the bolts back in. Stick a sling around them and your away.

Re: 3sge engine removal from top
There are either m10 or m12 fine high tensile. They dont bend but I am using a strap thats almost as wide as the engine mount._Al_ wrote: ↑22/11/22 21:19How thick are these bolts?
