Re: V6 Exhaust Manifold Bolt French Locks
They are pieces of metal which have tabs that fold over to prevent the exhaust bolts from loosening. Mine are long gone, I've seen them on other trucks and like the look.

Thanks. Didn't know they had a name.
I'll take a look if there are remnants on the side that has never been off. |

Re: V6 Exhaust Manifold Bolt French Locks
Cool, most are buggered up or rusted through. They are good to have, as the manifold bolts are only tightened to 15-20 ft lbs.
Would be an easy part to laser cut from a piece of sheet metal. |
