did a search and couldn't find the size of the union bolt next to the oil filter going to take it off to drill n tap for turbo oil feed i need to know the size socket i need, looks bigger then anything i have at home and i dont want to end up buying the wrong socket

if anyone remembers what size it is, your input would be greatly appreciated

 

...i dont know the size..but to make your life easier you could just buy the is300 union bolt..its already tapped so you dont need to tap the one you have..you can simply swap it out...also upon purchasing it, you can take it to a hardware store to figure out the size of the union bolt

 

eh i dont mind tapping it its easy stuff and i get to save myself 20-30 bucks and ive already called all the dealerships in my area and they would have to special order the part... and its not the right thread i need anyways so i would have to buy another fitting or drill n re tap it to npt

 

I never thought of this, I might just have to give this a shot. I didnt have any sockets that big so I used a crescent wrench to remove it.

 

oh ok, well sorry dont have any info for you.

 

i haven't really gotten into it yet but it seems tight, was it hard getting in a big wrench?

 

I did it on two blocks but they were both on an engine stand.

 

lol For a second I thought this thread was about Usain Bolt

 

24mm if anyone else needs to know...
