[TR] manual gearbox alignment bolts TR6 /Stag

[Sujit Roy]

Hi Jack. Thanks.
I was under the impression that the plain shank should ideally be long
enough to clear the box and engine plate, but from the Moss photo, this may
not be so.

TRF no longer carries this. I think Moss has a $10 min. purchase. But this
is better than a regular bolt.


Regards, Sujit
