by chance anyone know oof the top of there head, what size the bolt is that holds the speed sensor/gear to the T5 trans? I cleaned my trans (preping to get motor and trans back in car) few weeks ago.. was set to remove the tail housing to install the yellow drive gear to match the new 3.73 gear set I had installed in rear.. well when I pull out the speed sensor/gear and looked inside... it looked like the yellow one already... (win for me, didn't have to pull tailshaft) so I only had to replace the gear on the speed sensor... but the bolt that holds that in was really short (think someone put wrong one in) and only couple of threads grab and of course that striped/is not tightening now. so a longer bolt is need, but not sure what the thread size is ect.... just in case this one is way wrong, or threads are too damaged to check on the sizing thing in the bolt section @ tractor supply or lowes...
