616 air filter housing question - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

What is the thread on the center bolt, the stud to hold down the top?

Mine fell off and I need to replace it with a nylock. Car sounds like a 4 stroke dirt bike from the vibration.

Also, can I swap a passenger side seat bottom for a drivers side seat bottom? Spring seat portion. Thanks

There should be a nut on that threaded rod.

You can swap the seat bottoms. Pretty straight forward job.

yes, there should be. But mine is gone. Hence my question asking what thread it is so I may go to Lowes and purchase a replacement nylock nut

I did not pick up on the fact you were looking for the size. I am not sure of the threads but the original nut would have taken a 10 mm socket.

Don't know the size but it's the same as the power steering cover nut. Might be able to match it up.

That's helpful. I'll take the nut from my 603 into lowes. Should be the same as the 616
