I'm swapping a M5ODR1 for the 4r44E in my Ranger. The flex plate bolts for the automatic are 23mm long. The flywheel bolts from suppliers all use that same length but they only extend 1/4" past the flywheel. The crankshaft holes are 24mm deep so there is plenty of room for a longer bolt, but nobody seems to sell longer bolts for this application. I'm concerned about using something too short. Any help?
