Construction & Design:
ARP’s flywheel bolts are crafted from high-quality 8740 chromoly steel, known for its exceptional tensile strength and toughness. The cold forging process preserves the internal grain structure, resulting in bolts that resist stretching and fatigue better than standard fasteners. Each bolt undergoes precise heat treatment prior to thread rolling and machining, ensuring uniform hardness and strength throughout. This meticulous manufacturing process guarantees that the bolts maintain clamping force and resist loosening under extreme engine loads and vibrations.
Installation & Fitment:
The ARP Flywheel Bolt Kit is designed for direct replacement of the factory flywheel or flexplate bolts on manual transmission-equipped vehicles with the 4U-GSE engine. Installation is straightforward and requires no modifications to the flywheel or crankshaft. The included Ultra-Torque lubricant ensures proper torque readings and consistent bolt stretch, which is critical for maintaining secure fastening. It is recommended to follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications during installation to achieve optimal results.
What's Included:
- Set of ARP flywheel/flexplate bolts tailored for 4U-GSE engine applications
- 1/2 oz. tube of ARP Ultra-Torque fastener assembly lubricant
- Installation instructions and torque guidelines
Ideal For:
This bolt kit is ideal for automotive enthusiasts, tuners, and professional mechanics who demand enhanced durability and reliability from their driveline components. Whether upgrading for track use, performance driving, or routine maintenance, these ARP bolts provide peace of mind by significantly reducing the risk of bolt failure or loosening compared to OEM hardware. They are especially recommended for vehicles undergoing increased power output or frequent high-RPM operation.
