Author Message   Blackbelt Posted on Tuesday, August 02, 2005 - 09:47 am:        Ok all, Quick question... I searched the KV but can't find this tidd bit of info. What is the bolt size for the front muffler hanger? I kind of didn't tighten it after i got done replacing my front isolator, and changing the tranny fluid. So can anyone help a brotha out? it is the bolt that goes in the front "Y" hanger on the front of the muffler just after the 90 degree turn...
