Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Turbo elbow/downpipe flange bolt size?

[TWilkening]

I heard what I thought was my exhaust hitting the frame so I popped the hood to find that one of the bolts that holds the downpipe to the turbo elbow is missing So I'm wondering what size bolt I need. I'm hoping it's just a run of the mill metric bolt, but figured I'd ask.

I'm needing to know this same thing since I forgot to bring one of the bolts with me from the shop last night and I want to buy some new ones while I'm in town at work today. .

Anyone know off hand what the size of the downpipe bolts?

Did anyone reply as to the bolt size needed between the turbo elbow and the downpipe ?



I added an aftermarket Rip Rook 4" exhaust a good many years ago if that matters. This is for a 98. 5 24 Valve.



Thanks,

I got a reply back from Rip (thanks Rip!) that it's a 10mm x 1. 5 x 50mm with an integrated washer and grade 9. 8.

Just in case anyone else needed this info. If the size isn't right, I'll update this post.

Thanks,
