Transfer Case Drain/fill plug
The drain/fill on my 96' 1500 transfer case is different from most... uses 30 MM wrench.

Had to bump this thread. Does any one know the bolt size of the exhaust manifold? I know there are 2 different size on there.

The collectors are 9/16" can't recall what's on the actual manifold to heads, but I thought that it was 7/16".

I've just been playing with the steering on my 98 1500.

The 4 bolts that hold the power steering pump to the bracket are 5/8 head.

The fittings that connect the hoses to the steering box are 18mm heads.

Starter bolts, and oil pan drain plug 5.2L
First off, whoever said the starter bolts were 5/8", and the oil drain plug is 5/8", I beg to differ! On my '98 1500, 5.2L, the actual head size is a 16mm, on both the starter, and oil pan drain plug! You don't need a deep socket either, but a standard 16mm, with a long (6") extension works perfectly on the starter! But this is useless information for me! I need actual bolt size, length, and threads! If I go by what's been posted so far, if I could even get a bolt started, I'd be tearing up the threads on my transmission! I'm glad you're posting a bolt list, but you might want to verify the actual bolt sizes, before you post them!

Trouble is, things change from year to year. Most american vehicles have a mixture of standard, and metric fasteners on them..... its actually rather random which ones go where....... Illustrated parts listing for your year truck should have the correct info.... and there are some available for download in the faq section here.

Small nut size on alternator?
I see the outside size of the smallest nuts holding 2 wires connected to a square black box as 5/32. I have other 5/32 nuts (looks like fine thread) but they do not fit suggesting course threads. Can anyone confirm the size or perhaps how to get the one missing nut I have (Please no puns...LOL)?

Mine are 7 or 8. It's a metric nut
