Size/length/and pitch of the compressor “bracket bolt sizes”?
DUDE posted a topic in Nissan L6 Forum
Does anyone know the size, length ,and pitch of the bolts that hold the bracket for the compressor on in L24 engine? -
I was changing the headlights in my 78 280Z tonight and I managed to snap 3 of the 4 bolts that hold the headlight in (the ones with the flat head). Can someone please tell me the size, length, and pitch of these bolts so I can buy replacements? I also need to get the remaining bolts out. I am thinking pliers, because they protrude on the other side, but would a small easy-out be a better idea? Thanks!

I learned a few tricks when installing my bumpers. ( as requested by California Highway Patrol) I bought some used ones and the rear must have been in a slight accident because the bolt flanges were bent and did not align with the body holes. Tip #1 Hammering then prying the side flanges on the rear bumper back into shape does not work we'll. cut a piece of wood about 1.5" x 1.5" and jam it under the flange. Stand it on its end the hammer it down. Works great. Tip #2 To attach the rear bumper, fasten the straight part to the body first, then attach the side flanges to the body next, then screw the sides to the straight part. Reason - if there is any irregularities, the holes will not align if you try to install the whole thing at once. Tip #3 Use some 1/2" (inside hole dimension) rubber bearings between the body and side flanges of the rear bumper. Gives good spacing.
