Anyone have the part numbers for the up-pipe nuts and bolts handy?

 

W300013 -Y-Pipe Bolt (Long 4 Required)*

W300006 -Y-Pipe Bolt (Short 2 Required)*

W300051 -Y-Pipe nut (6 Required)*

This doesn't match the hardware numbers on the parts schematic the dealer pulled using the VIN from my 07, but when his numbers didn't actually fit, the .org gave me these.

 

Thanks Bryan! The IPR delete kit doesn't look like it comes with new up pipe hardware so I want to pick up some just in case...

 

Just an FYI, tousley was just over $4 each for the nuts, local wanted $16 a nut. Crazy. Maybe someone knows the grade and whatnot of the bolts and can recommend a cheaper alternative.

You doing the IPR gen2 egr kit? I've been dying to see how one looks installed other than promo pics.

 

Ouch, they are spendy. Tousley is close by but for that price I will take a glance at mine and see how they look.

I will let you know how the kit looks in person.

 

I hate to bring up an old thread but I had some questions about this. Has anyone used something other than OEM? I was thinking grade 8 fine thread. I know they are hard, but can they take the heat? The EGT's can get as high as 1200 deg. I thought I saw NAPA had these.

Thanks for your input.

 

Grade 8 or Metric 10.9 is more than enough.

Pictures of my ipr gen 2 in this thread. ( https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s....php?t=1225728 )Yes it came with everything but the up pipe bolts were a pain.

 

I will have to admit that's one fine looking piece from IPR. I'm surprised someone didn't think of it sooner.

 

You may be looking at a nut that is not a steel nut but an alloy
of some type. Check the nuts with a magnet and if they don't
stick you have an answer if they do they can still be an alloy.

I was thinking of getting these bolts and nuts from a hardware store. They sell grade 8 nuts and bolts. I will check them with a magnet just to make sure they are steel. I was also thinking of welding a bolt on top creating a T. Then I would not need to try and get a wrench on it.

Thanks

LOL... Considering the fact they rust like crazy, the up pipe bolts and nuts aren't some super duper German made rocket titanium pieces.

No need to make a mountain out of an anthill.

I checked Tousley for prices on the #'s listed above. They are pricey, just for nuts and bolts.

Years ago I mounted an exhaust pipe to manifold on an old Chevy truck. I was young and had some 316 stainless laying around so I thought it won't rust, perfect. I could not understand why the nuts kept coming loose. I guess the two metals expand/contract at different temps.

So I guess the question is do the grade 8 steel bolts expand/contract with high temps?

Thanks for your input.

All metal expands and contracts with heat/cold. You will have to compare the metallurgy of the up pipe/turbo to the bolts. Most regular bolts are Nickel or Cadmium. Some are galvanized but those are not popular, especially in my shop.

Typically regular steel and Aluminum are pretty close to the bolts.

 

Old thread back from the dead...these bolts and nuts even from Tousley Ford are absolutely ridiculous! $26 for 6 nuts? Is there a better option?
