MicroMachinery Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Are you sure you're not looking for a "flexplate"? -The torque converter in an Automatic transmission bolts to a flexplate. -The clutch/pressure plate in a manual transmission bolts to a flywheel. Which one is it? Link to comment
Chris#51EPGraham Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 Yeah...I've never heard of a cast iron stick flywheel breaking. It could happen on a a 9000+ rpm race engine but can't imagine it occurring on a daily driver truck. Unless he broke the starter ring gear real bad. That happens. I have 5 or 6 L16 flywheels avail for $30 and $40 each (cheaper = disc surface needs regrinding) but shipping to Oregon would be pretty high. Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 2, 2010 Report Share Posted November 2, 2010 my uncle has a 73 automatic 620 ..... Pretty much says it all. But it should be called a flex plate to avoid confusion. The '72 would have had the 'newer' Nissan 3N71B in it, same as the late 510 automatics. A 'flexplate' from a 610 or 710 auto up to around '74 should work as long as it is an L18 and not an L20B which has the six bolt mounting. Z cars used six bolt flexplates. Link to comment

izzo Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 I was driving in my 89 ford ranger 4x4, auto. The flex plate shattered and sheered apart. Link to comment
