Thread: special socket?

what socket do i use on this type of bolt? i tried a 13 and 14 no-slip, and no dice. i also tried at 1/2 no slip and it would hold but if it put a lot of pressure on it, it slips. i went to my dealer and they had no idea where to get the socket. i know i dont sell it at work either.

yes its for the flywheel. it holds the pressure plate onto it...

Try a machine shop? What's it for? Flywheel.

yes flywheel...

what do u mean no slip, just try a 6point or maybe a 12point socket

14mm 12point

I think that requires an inverted torx socket. They have wierd ass sizes.

edit

hey wait a second is that for an auto flywheel?? like for taking the torque converter off?? i cant remember the side but i know i did use a 12 point, i thought it was the flywheel bolts to the crank.. which is a 14mm 12point

it is an inverted torx socket, you can get it at autozone for cheap,not the best quality, but should work for you.

there are bolts that have that pattern head, i believe they go by "E-6mm* or something of that name. they sell them at sears.

or ebay.
hope that helps. but idk why you would have that on there, last time i saw one of those was on a ABS sensor on a Mustang
