Long story short, I was about to remove the cross bar, only to find that the size was between 6mm and 7mm. I aborted that project, and figured I'd look it up later. Just found it as odd, and only a few days after a friend of mine commented how screwed he be if he bought a domestic car based on his metric tool investment ;-)

So, yes, the fasteners that bolt the mount to the cross bar are fractional. Not much we could do about that except get a custom mount made, which frankly was not justified for this minor issue.

The balance of the parts are metric.

Sorry for the hassle.

Our instructions give the fastener specs.

Sorry, not that part. The cross bar to the subframe part - those 6 allens

those?

I have a new(used) tranny in there, and I forgot to tap the threads before install. So right now, the cross bar is in the way of the holes to tap. I was going to just remove the 6 allens instead of the whole thing.

Todd/A.W.E.

You can remove those, but use a small amount of thread sealant to renew the threads upon reassembly.

Thanks Todd - do you know what size allen they are?
