Default 01 Rap Flywheel Removal for one way, What length 8mm bolts to use?

I realize that you have to use a steering wheel puller to get the flywheel off along with that gear behind it. At the RaptorTranny.com site it calls out 8mm bolts but it doesn't specify the length. Does anyone know the correct length bolt to use???thanks [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I used some that were 5-6" long. And built it up with washers like on Raptortranny.com

I just removed mine. Went to O'reilly's Auto and borrowed a harmonic balancer puller. Had to use 8mm bolts that were 80mm in length. This allowed me to use 3 washers. I also used a strap wrench since the flywheel still wanted to turn. Using a cheater bar, it popped off easily.

An air wrench is much easier and less hastle. Dawg, the screws are very tight, but I have some info that will keep you from pulling threads. Apply about 80-90 ft. lbs. of pressure to the puller, next whack the end of the puller with a BF hammer and the flywheel will jump right off there....piece of cake. Good luck. Oh yea...finding the CORRECT puller was a pain for me. If you can't find one, pm me and I will let you borrow mine.
