Bolts for KA24E rocker cover

[Soundline]

I’m curious here, I have a manual for the KA24E out of my 89’ 240SX that I’m putting into my 74’ 620.  The engine was partially disassembled by the po, and the bolts were lost. 
 

I’ve got three part numbers from Nissan: 

13264H

13224-40F01

1322440F01

 

I’m no genius but the last two look strangely similar.   Here’s my question for the Ratsun Gawds.  Was this bolt used in anything else?  I searched for the D21 and the 240SX, but I’m coming up dry trying to find all 8 of these.

13264H is the part diagram number (lookup code), this number is a rocker cover bolt on their diagrams but is NOT the same specific part number. According to Nissan the last two part numbers the dashed number (13224-40F01) supersedes 1322440F01.

13224-40F01 screw 07'88-12'88 S13 KA24E

13224-40F02 screw 12'88-07'90 S13 KA24E and on the 07'90-11'91 S13 KA24DE from 11'91- the number changes to...

13224-53F01 S13 KA24DE and also used on the 07'93-'98 D21 KA24E

 

The take away is that the KA24E and KA24DE can use all of the above part numbers in the years shown. After '98 on the D21 Hardbody KA24DE the washer under the bolt changed and probably the bolt length? There was a radical change in the part number although the bolt and the washer may fit the earlier applications. 

 

After 02'94 on the S14 KA24DE the bolt part number changed radically perhaps like the D21 above and the new part number is not shown to be compatible with the earlier ones though the bolt AND the washer might fit.

 

 

 

The F01 and F02? 01 and 02 are the distinction number. 00-19 and 60-69 are reserved for the a/ Similarity distinction. Could simply be that 01 and 02 were by different manufacturers of the same exact part or a different color. There are also b/ Exclusive Service Use, c/ Material and d/ Processing distinction numbers.

I just threw a bunch of that stuff away. Had it for too long without needing it. Figures someone would need it a week after it went in the can.

This is the same conclusion I’d come to Dguy, thank you for making me feel like I’m on the right track.

Mike, as much as I like to talk trash about Canada (due to the PM) I’d consider coming up to ‘the island’ you reside on if I could get the opportunity to see your Nissan manual library.  It has to be akin to the storage vaults under the Vatican in Rome.

Ha! That’s ok Stoff, you’ve saved my ass more than once on this forum, especially when I was moving 160 mi NE during the pandemic.  I’d like to tap your knowledge on a semi-related note. Would you use an early 90’s Land Cruiser to tow an Aug/88 built 240SX on a car trailer?  If so, how far (on level ground?

 

 

 

Finally, thank you all again I’ll be looking for the parts to order to validate the Rat King’s info.  I’m excited to get this ball slowly rolling so I can give Redeye feedback on his 620 KA24E kit with an auto into a 620.

(13224-40F01) supersedes 1322440F01....

 

 1322440F01 is just misprinted missing the - in the middle. All Nissan part numbers are 10 digits consisting of 5-5. Further broken down into 

 

00 ...... section number (example 22 is electrical)

000 .... character number (100 is distributor)

 

000.... part type number (148 is for the 520)

00....... distinction number is broken down further into...

 

Similarity.... (any number between (00-19, 60-69) Same part with minor difference like color

 

Exclusive Service Use, Material and Processing.... (25-29, 75-79)

 

Material..... (40-45, 80-85) same part but now perhaps plastic instead of metal or aluminum part now cast in steel.

 

Procession.... 30-39, 90-94, 50-59) Indicates an assembly consisting two or more parts like a bolt and washer.

Wow. I can save an ass...

 

Yes, I would tow a car with an LC, but it depends on the size of the trailer. We used to tow our first 510 race car with a Volvo 240 and our second tow rig was a Dodge van with a 318. So anything is possible. The LCs I build are powerful enough to tow anything, and the upgraded suspension and brakes help, but you're still at the mercy of the vehicle's GVW/GCW, which if you surpass, can get you into trouble. Your FJ80 is not a powerhouse so if you had to hit a mountain pass, expect to be doing 25 mph or less.

We used to trailer tow our 1200 race car behind a 1st gen Caravan with the 2.6, in general flat land was ok

 

Trailer length and balance are critical to ensure safety and peace of mind. This video really explains it well
