Missing a few of them, The bed rattles around

it isnt a normal bolt. the "head" end is a funny shape so yoou dont have to put a wrench on the top end. i think they are only a dealer item.

For the cost of shipping and time that's stupid.

Bed bolts are M10-1.25. They have a large diameter washer attached. The washer has 2 tabs sticking out (180* apart) that keep it from spinning, that way you only need a wrench on the nut to tighten them down. If you have really long arms or a friend to hold another wrench, standard 10M bolts will work. You could also use 3/8" bolts which are a hair (1/64") smaller than 10M.

Bed Bolts

Thanks for your imput on the bed bolts, i decided i would try the M10 1.25 i will also look up rock auto. i have taken the bed off and have had it sandblasted and am now in the process of putting POR-15 Metal Ready and then applying POR-15 on the frame. i appreciate your response to my thread.. keep in touch Rudy Villarreal :spy:

Just picked up mine from the local dealership. Weren't that expensive, although the rubber flat square spacers were more expensive than the bolts.

They're going to be fun sticking a regular bolt in there, consider it's an encased housing at the top. Not impossible, but also not worth the $8.00 each to replace

I just ordered new bolts, washers and spacers for my frame resto I'm doing

You can see that the original bolts were rotting.

Make sure you post your experience on your bolt install.
