Starter bolts

[zogger]

Hi guys! Quick question. Might be the lamest one ever asked here, so here goes: 

 

Had something happen to me the other day when I was in town, never happened before, my dang starter just fell out! Ha! No notice or weird sounds, cranked good that morning, got to town, parked, came back out, nada, went and looked and had a are you kidding me moment.... I cobjobbed a block of wood between the starter rear housing and the engine mount, got it to crank well, no grinding, and got home. So I need new bolts, but have no idea what size they are, sorta need the exact size, head size, length, pitch, etc.. Truck in question is an 81 with the sd22 diesel.  Its not my daily driver, because I only drive around once a week to go into town, but it is my regular driver then, so need to make sure I get it fixed soon, not trusting that block of wood to keep working.

 

thanks in advance if anyone knows!

I have had the same problem. only my start didn't fall out. I just heard a huge clunk like bang and then started having starting issues. I just took my starter out and went to a local auto elec cost me like 20cents to get new bolts. only thing you could do is go see a mechanic or auto elec and see what they got.

They will be metric thread. Just try them until you get some that fit.

two of each. You can get these at Ace Hardware, or any hardware store, at a fraction of what Nissan wants

 

Nissan 08121-03510 BOLT M10 x 35mm

Nissan 08915-24000 WASHER, Spring lock thick M10

Nissan 08915-13810 WASHER, Spring lock medium M10

NUT M10

 

The two lock washers vary in thickness, but I think that's not important

Head size is 14mm, but not too importan
