I'm wondering if anyone happens to know the thread diameter and pitch for the four main front cradle bolts?
My car is not currently on the lift (really odd, that) and before I set up to pull and replace the clutch again I want to obtain some longer bolts for the job.
I suspect they are M12x1.75 or M12 x 2.0 but they could be M14?
Anyone know or have a GM part number?


Side note: Engine cradles ARE available apparently (I had understood them to be permanently back-ordered)

I'm not buying a cradle but I thought it was noteworthy

Well, since I'm a noobie here, and we always suggest noobies try searching first.. I tried searching AFTER making the thread(!) and found the part number right away (11570359) in another thread, here.

No dimensions but hopefully I'll have that soon.

Y'all can put me back on /ignore as I'm just babbling to myself in the corner...

Just in case any comes a-lookin'

Thanks for savin' me! man, I was >this< close to adding something here!

I found the info and found some 16x2x100 bolts at the local fastener shop so I'll try my theory about dropping the cradle down (further) for the clutch swap.

Glad we could help!
