Re: i lost my nuts!

On my car, the two larger nuts are 13mm, and are only about 3/8'' deep(only had to take one of these off to remove starter). The other smaller one is 8mm and is about 1/4'' deep, and has a collar at the bottom.

The larger one is installed with a lockwasher on my car. Hope that helps.

LOL salty just replied to your message about you loosing your nuts...
I know I'm a retard but it was funny anyway I'm not sure what size but I can check in the morning for you. I'm think they are metric but dont remember the size. It's the thread size that's important, not the size of the tool needed to install/remove it.

Re: i lost my nuts!

When I bought my starter it came with them. Go to CrapZone and ask to see a new one. Bring a buddy to distract the parts idiot and swipey!!!!!!!

Help me pay them back for all the aggravation they have caused me.
