    Default Engine stand bolts

    Howdy, just got an engine stand for my 4age and the gearbox bolts are too short to bolt it to the stand, can I use the engine xmember bolts instead or should I buy some?

    the motor is only 100kg, 4 bolts of plastic would hold that in a pinch

    crossmember bolts would be perfect, as they hold the thing that holds your engine already...
