Hey people.
Does anybody know the specs of the gearbox crossmember bolts for a GU? Better yet do you know where I can get some? Nissan stated they are $35 trade each!

That is a silly price! Sorry can't help with a price or size. Take 1 out and take it in for sizing. Trust me your gear box won't fall out if you take one out ;)

My DA Maverick manual has ( in a chart ) bolt sizes and strengths associated with various size bolts.
have a look see in your manual see if ya can find similar.
Also bolt grade numbers (example, 8 ) is usually stamped on end of a hi tensile bolt.
Oh! and never substitute to a lower number.
take a bolt with you to make sure you get the correct pitch.
thats the amount of threads per mm
1, 1.25, 1.5 threads per mm etc
cheers

120-140Nm according to the workshop manual.
The rear Uni joint nuts on the driveshaft are 94-108Nm in case you need this as well.
