front mm bolt missing

[Black-taurus]

my front mm bolt is missing. i know i replaced it with some cheap bolt the first time this happened apparently it didn't hold up. this is a bad sitiation because when you rev the engine in gear then clutch quick to shift you hear a THUD! Engine whacking the hood and probably denting it :cry: i just need to know the exact type of bolt dia,pitch,length,grade and maybe the torque specs if someone could please find out this information. i don't have any manuals

Thanks a lot guys

Why not get the proper bolt and a lock nut such as a exhaust stud nut and lock nut it on too. The threads in your mount maybe a little loose.

GGgrrr...

I just called the biggest ford dealer in MN and they couldn't even tell me the pitch all I got was 10mX100m and course thread??? they don't even stock it anymore and if they did it would be $20. could anyone please tell me the size of this bolt i need it BAD!

Its m10 1.5mm pitch. Don't know the length though.

Thought about a used one? With as many part cars as there are Im sure someone would send you one for free?

10mX100 1.5
i had to call 2 different dealerships. one said it was a 10m by 100 and he didn't know the pitch and one said it was a 10m with 1.5 pitch and he didn't know the length???
i had to use a tranny stand to lift the motor a bit to slide the bolt in. i'm going to have to retorque the bolt monthly i guess???

Put an nut on the part of the threads that sticks out the back of the mount and thighten that. It will help lock it in. I am not sure its been a while scince I really looked at motor mount bolts but are they not thicker than a standard M10 bolt?
