Bumper Carriage Bolts

Look like 7/16-14 x1 to me which means they'll be nearly impossible to find- especially in stainless. Anybody have a parts list that gives the specs?

You talking about the front or rear bumper bolts. I wouldn't use stainless. A good grade 8 bolt will work much better. I found all my bumper bolts at my local fastener shop.

i know exactly what you are talking about. Very hard size to find. In the end I got a set of galvanized ones from ACE and painted them. They were a bit smaller and longer than stock, but worked.

I should have been a clearer, I mean the front bumper carriage bolts. I've found a source for grade 5 zinc which seems to be the best I can do.

Found a source for them in stainless steel. If anybody needs any odd sized stainless fasteners check out this site.
