I got my engine back today but my lower case stubs are too short to pass through the bell housing since I changed my transmission to a 6 rib. I have checked every store around my house and no one sells 10mm threaded stubs or even threaded rod. I found some that I can order but I was looking for something quicker and wondering what other people have done..

I used all thread rod cut it to the length i needed and swapped them out
lowes here sells all thread and so does tractor supply I think it it 12 mm but cant swear to that
those studs are pretty long can you back the out enough to run it until you get some all thread ?

If you know the length and thread size you'll find them here.

Find a bolt long enough and cut the head off then use a nut to clean the threads where u cut the the head off before u install it.

Got to love Pull A Part.. Fortunately, there is a Vanagon sitting in a local Pull A Part and I knew that the tranny was already removed. It only took a few minutes to grab the bottom stubs from the engine and I was all set. Came home and installed the engine.
