Default Re: Bolt sizes for pressure plate and bell housing

That shoulder is very important.... And it could be same diameter as the unthreaded area of a regular bolt. But in a HD truck like an F250 in granny gear with a load, and dump the clutch heading uphill, think of the shear on those 6 rather small bolts!
