crank pully bolt size?

[E.L Lane's 48]

I know this probably has been posted before, but I could not locate a thread discussng the size of the crank pully bolt on a 1948 plym 218. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris

You are best to measure as there are several different sizes.

on a 1951 it's a 1.5" head with ~1.25" thread size.

Thanks for the replies. I am actually trying to work the engine loose, as it has been sitting for 20+ years and is locked up.

I went to the flea market and found a fellow selling used tools.

Bought a big ol socket for about 5 bucks. Don't recall the size now,

but used it to try and turn over the engine in a 54 Plym that was stuck.

Fit on that front nut I believe you're speaking of.

Thanks for the help guys. Was at the pawn shop and stumbled across a 1 and 13/16 socket for $4 bucks so I bought it. Brought it home, and what do you know? It fit! I am happy just for the fact I didn't drop the $21 bucks that SEARS wanted for one.

Thanks again,

Chris
