What size is this bolt?

Post by fordt » Mon May 29, 2023 10:06 am

Here’s the back of the body frame and the top of the rear springs. Ignore the square head placeholder in there just to index things together. I have to stick a pickup bed on top of this as well, what size are these bolts? 7/16”? 3/8”?

I don't remember the size, but Bob Bergstadt (username fatman) used to or still does manufacture the correct extra tall head version of those bolts (front and rear are different) and may still have some. :)
