When I changed the transmission, I had to take a sawzall to the transmission mount/rear motor mount on the XJ6. (triange mount between the rear of transmission and frame cross member). Because I had destroyed the 6 pt torx bolt I was never able to extract it, hence sawzall to the mount.

I am now in need of replacing that bolt (i think its official name is PIN ADAPTER or PIN EXTENDER)

In the seattle area we have a company that specializes in bolts and nuts of all sizes, unfortunately I do not have any information about this bolt, and can not find pictures on internet, nor can I find anyone online who sells bolt.

I am hoping someone either has a bolt I can purchase (paypal) or at least has pictures of one. I believe it is the same thread as the bolts on the cross member, so I know the thread. I just need to know length and what makes this bold so special that it costs $75.00 at the dealer.

 

I believe I saw somewhere, that the XJ6 transmission is also used in some of the BMW's? does anyone know which BMW model or series?

I am thinking I may be able to find simular length bolt/thread size for its mount.

 

I can't help you on the bolt, but the transmission in 4.0 X300 Jaguars is ZF 4HP24. You can find the list of applications here:

ZF 5HP transmission - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The mount might be different in different applications. BMW with V12 are hard to come by anyway, look for a P38 Range Rover with 4.6

 

thanks,

I just looked them all up, NOPE all different. I have checked all of the local british/european junk yards in the area... and NOTHING

so, looks like I am going to the dealer to purchase a bolt for $72.00 usd + $15.00 2 day shipping charge so I can have by this weekend.
