Does anyone remember or know what's size of the front crankshaft bolt? The reason im asking im going to fix the leak and replace the front crankshaft seal.
If anyone of you remember please let me know,

1. What is the exact size?

2. Where can i get them? If you can provide the weblink, i'll probably get it thru online.

Many Thanks
Regards,

Jerry

Jerry,

That's a reusable part - no need to buy a new one for this job. If you have to have new, get it from Cdan here on the list. I would NEVER use a non Toyota part for such a critical item. No way.

IdahoDoug, Actually im looking for the socket size to loose the crankshaft bolt.

 

[cruiserdan]

30mm if it is stock, 32mm if it has a blower.

Pardon me CDan my truck is stock, so it just regular 30 mm size socket?

Thank you again

I think people have used 1 3/16" also.


Did a little more research and corrected the size

Correct, 30mm if you do not have a supercharger. Vehicles that have a supercharger have an additional pully that goes on top of the original pulley and it requires a longer bolt. The longer bolt has a 32mm head instead of the 30mm head on the original stock bolt. You do not need a deep socket for either bolt.

Ah I see thank you very much there for more explanation

You'll need a method for holding the crank while torquing on that bolt. I made a bracket that mounted to the crank pulley and was held against the frame. 304 ft-lbs IIRC.
