Well it is like this.
I have known Crabman for almost 20 years. Yesterday I call him up and we are yacking about all the stuff that Mopar has killed off or is overpriced. Much like the conversations on the board. The short crank bolts were twenty bucks and have now been discontinued. I asked him that if he had any (he has tons of stuff laying around) I could use them or if he might have another source with a part number so I could order me about 25 or so. (I use a lot and sell them as well). That post was his way of trying to help me out. I honestly do not need anyone sending me bolts but I appreciate the thoughts. He was trying to help. I only wanted a part number to buy new ones but also to make sure they are made of the correct material. Nobody, ever thinks about torquing the crank bolts. (mostly because they do not have a torque wrench big enough. Calculate the actual torque needed to CORRECTLY torque an ARP crank bolt with the right preload and stretch.
