Hi guys,
I’m trying to figure out what size and type of bolts are used for the rear upright blocks at the far rear of my 27 touring.
These suit upright on the ends of the spring cross member.
The blocks are drill straight through. My painter last my originals and I’m trying to determine what I need.
The blocks are shown below.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Brent

Sure Brent

Did find Ford Factory # T-8120 for 1926-27 'Bolt, Rear Body Bracket , Short', 5/16" x 18 x 2 3/4" L




Would have been size I used too, as those frame rear side brackets have a big hole :)
