Pins behind the washer on the supercharger clutch bolt
I tried searching and nothing came up about these pins.

Are these guidance pins?
what are they here for?
If they snapped what do i need to do?

Please only answer if you have good advice.

Dude are you talking about the shims??? They are there for proper clutch engagement... You should replace them unfortunately they only come with a brand new clutch assembly from the dealership and you cannot get them separately.

Two pins for guidance. When I swapped out a buddies pulley, we noticed his were missing (sheared) , but did not cause any issues.

thank-you for the quick reply.
I just want to triple check, i read that the bolt is to be torqued to 60nm or 44ft-lb, is this correct, it doesn't seem like that is enough?

You didnt search, theres a few threads on this.

Tighten to 60nm

Shim spec should be between 0.35-0.45mm

I did search, 60 nm just doesn't seem like very much. You obviously didn't read my post clearly enough
