Anyone know where I can find one of these bastards. Honda decided to be awesome and use the most bass ackwards dimensions for their engines

And yes, i am POSITIVE that it's M11-1.25

At the risk of sounding stupid...

did you try

http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com

I also once found a few nuts and bolts places online too...


such as:

What does it go to and how long is it? And yea the dealer doesnt have one?

Bense

The OEM bolt will not work. It is custom and is too long. I have already tried to modify it and ruined my bolt.

The bolt has a thread section of M11-1.25, then it has a unthreaded section that is 0.389" which is too small for to thread with a 7/16-20 die. The bolt then is "reduced" to a M10-1.25 Thread.

A M10-1.25 die will not fit over the unthreaded section either. IT HAS to be a M11-1.25 bolt.


The bolt is here #27 It's for the timing belt tensioner on my F20B.

Thats really bloody weird. I suggest if you have a bolt shack type place try asking them. Or atleast for a die of that size. If you could fine that grab any M11 and go to work. You already tried cutting the top and tapping it to your 10 x 1.25?

I even have a thread pitch and bolt gauge, It's definitely M11-1.25

I have no clue why honda is doing this. What I am hoping is that MAYBE i can find a m12-1.25 die and beginning to thread it and modify the other end of this bastard.

According to one individual on a forum I came across:

maryland metrics has anything you can dream up.

I needed a 11x1.25 and 9x1 nuts, and they just said "what material and finish?"

Bense

+SCREW+ this, i'm just gonna go 7/16-20 It's basically the same thing.


I'm gonna have to make a stud though and use JB weld as loctite in there.

7/16 = 0.4375"
11mm = 0.43307"

The emperial 20 thread pitch is very similiar to the 1.25 pitch.

I am pretty sure that you can find it at lowe's or home depot. It's not going to be the nice bolt like an OEM honda one, but they carry a limited quantity of metric stuff. I just bought some bolts there the other weekend for my front end. Not sure what their largest sizing was, but I'm pretty sure I bought M10-1.25 and that wasnt the largest.

They don't have M11, already looked. Nobody uses M11, except honda.

go to a junkyard take it off another car

1.04" isn't long enough. It needs to be 2"

Mr. Bense,

We don't stock anything 11Mx1.25. However, we distribute for ARP and they show a Toyota flywheel bolt 11Mx1.25 with an under the head length of 1.04". ARP flywheel bolts are low profile 12-point and the wrench size is larger than a normal bolt. Please let me know if you need any further information. Thank you for contacting Hillco Fastener Warehouse.

is it possible to have a bolt custom made $$

B16b-EJ8

Well i tried...they have had every bolt i have ever needed. If nothing else i provided what i think is a good resource. Hope it helps you or someone else in need of a bolt in the future.

Padawan

Did you try the resource I posted above?

EX-T

The f20b is jdm and edm only right? Is there not a way that a local dealership can't order that bolt for you from over there and you get it that way?

Yes I looked there, it just seemed to be like a trafficjam of information. I just didn't feel like navigating.

It's not even a JDM bolt. It's the same F22/H23 bolt.

what grade is all-thread anyway? Mcmaster-carr sells studs too, I'm sure you could find a 7/16-20 one in whatever length that would be alot stronger.</TD></TR></TABLE>

haha yeah, I just got the 2' threaded rod. I'm kinda worried about the strength of it but I think I will be all right. Right now I just have a bolt in there with red loctite. I think it's a grade 5 bolt. I'm debating on whether or not it will become an issue further down the road.

Knowing that the M11-1.25 bolt is actually

11mm = 0.43307 inches diameter, 20.320 pitch
7/16 " = 0.4375 inches diameter, 20.000 pitch

Think it will be an issue?

pdiggitydogg

want to just borrow my timesert kit and make it m11x1.5?

really, thats what I would do... the hell with trying to find a 1.25
