Beginning with engines produced after July 16, 2001, the thread size of the bolts that attach the flywheel to the crankshaft has changed. The threads changed from a 10M X 1.5 to a 10M X 1.0.
If a crankshaft needs to be replaced for any reason, there is a crankshaft kit available, P/N 88958866. The new kit includes a crankshaft and new bolts. Exercise caution when replacing a crankshaft that you do not mix the bolts. Mixing the old and new bolts could lead to stripped bolts or bolt holes and possible engine, crankshaft or transmission failure.
