Mahindra 3525 flywheel

[DeeCee59]

I have a Mahindra 3525 that I am replacing the clutch pressure plate on but did not receive the correct size bolts to attach the flywheel to the housing. There are six of these bolts. Do you wnow the correct size or part number for these?

Did you not remove the old pressure plate from the flywheel yet? You re-use the old bolts if there's no damage to them. The flywheel is attached to the engine crankshaft with bolts of it's own, normally these aren't removed unless you are getting the flywheel resurfaced or doing a rear main engine seal or something. Be sure to note correct installation of the clutch disc too as it came out when you remove the pressure plate, whether the protruding side of the disc goes towards the flywheel or the pressure plate, it varies on some designs.

When I got the tractor the owner told me the bolts had vibrated loose so he never ran the tractor again. I got two different sizes but they wer too small. Would like to know dimensions. All else on tractor in great condition. Thank you for the other information. I understand there are a total of six bolts to attach flywheel to housing and twelve to attach pressure plate to flywheel. Is this correct.

Thank you. There were still some of the old bolts which we took and purchased the corredt size.
