June 2, 201015 yr I have a 1996 2.2L, AT, engine. I want to put it on an engine stand. What size bolts do I need?
June 2, 201015 yr I believe the tricky part is the 1.25 pitch. I wanna say 14 x 1.25 from memory (a bad memory). Take one of the nuts you took off to Lowes. Figure out how long of bolts you'll need. Usually you need 2 nuts(and 4 washers) and 2 bolts to put an engine on the stand. The 2 lower studs remain in the engine unless you purposely remove them. BTW engine/trans nuts, motor mount nuts, and exhaust stud nuts are all the same. Come with some special coating from Subaru and are a bit pricey. I ALWAYS put anti-seize on the new bolts that will thread into the engine. Don't need to be buggering up those threads. I actually also apply some to the stud threads.
June 2, 201015 yr Author I bought the engine already out of the car, don't have the nuts. ( Luckly I still have 2 in the sac) I may have some exhaust nuts, give look see. Thanx for the help.
June 3, 201015 yr Author Well, I went to my local True Value and did the trial and error. My engine was in my pickup. Its a 10 x1.25. I got em about 4" long. Thanx again for the help.
