I read about the different bolts but I needed to get the car reassembled for the next day. Don't have my second car anymore.

Curious about the bolts though. If both sides are threaded how do the bolts work? The shank on my bolts are larger than the diameter of the threads so the bolt stops short. Do the new bolts have a narrow shank to pass through the first set of threads?

Edit: Actually, if you went backwards in year, the pumpkin would have no threads on the output shafts. Are your short shafts threaded or not? Did you use bolts and nuts like the 350?
