Help with replacement bolt size. DK55 with 2385 backhoe.

[dberry]

Hi folks,

The plate that attaches underneath the frame that receives the backhoe has come off. It has 6 bolts needed to reattach it that look like roughly 2" long 1/2" diameter bolts. I know they are metric and if anyone knows what size I need to order I'd really appreciate it.

I guess when they installed the plate they didn't use loc-tite and somehow they all vibrated loose over time and are now lost on my farm who knows where.

Thanks!

If its the plate at the front of the tractor they are M12 1.25P 60mm and if it is for the bracket on the rear those are M14 1.5P 45mm.

Hope that helps.

You are a lifesaver. Thanks a bunch. I found them on amazon pretty quick. I don't really understand metric all that well, and it would have taken me 10 different tries to find the right thread and size.

Now that I think of it, when they get here, I'm going to remove the rear bolts and add some loctite and reinstall those as well. Probably won't ever have to mess with them again.

Thanks!
