Dimensions of front crankshaft bolt? For a weird purpose


jc43089

Question

I think the main crank bolt on the x50/2 is M18x1.5  Does anyone have one laying around to get the length from under the head and how far the threads go.  Also helpful but I can probably measure while installed is the diameter of the flange under the hex.

This is for the van project.  I'm hoping it's around 50mm long.

Thanks!  That won't work then.  I thought it had a shorter head anyway.  That's what i needed though.  Apparently it is really difficult to find a socket head cap screw in M18x1.5.  Most are the normal coarse thread of 2.5.  I need a bolt to thread into the end of the steering rack to attach my offset/spacer parts.
