Hi All,
Does anyone know what size bolt will fit the hole on the end of the crankshaft? (front)
It looks to be a 9/16 or 5/8.
Thanks,
Ron

I believe that's a 1/2" - NC

1/2" is correct. Get one at least 5 inches long. It's a deep hole!

Thanks to all who responded!!
After I finally got the fan pulley off, I discovered that the threads in my crank
have been gone for some time.
It appears that they were pulled out.
I was able to tap the deeper, smaller hole to a 7/16 x 14 so I would at least have something.
I believe I would have to go up to at least a 5/8 size to re-thread the outer part of the crank.
Thanks again!!
Ron
