Nuts, Bolts and Washers Thread

I have spent the last week scouring the FAQ boards for answers to a lot of my questions, and saved threads as i went on my way.

ALOT OF GOOD info there, however, i saw nothing on the Size bolts and nuts folks on here might need while doing a rebuild.
Short of going to a borad sponsor or vendor, there really is not much info on the subject.

For example, i recently went to the local hardware store and picked up what I thought i needed for my bed to be mounted properly, and i must say it looks as though i did the right thing. Its not the exact right hardware, but its good.

BED MOUNTING:

8-7/16 x 5.5" bolts with the round head

8-1/4" thick X 2"(dia) rubber washers

8-Lock washers

8-Big washers

8-7/16 nuts

And i recently asked a vendor about Cab Mounting (bolts only) and he was nice enough to share with me the following:

2 - 7/16" x 5.1/2" Bolts

2 - 2.1/2" washers

But what about Front Clip?

Inner Fender

Outer Fender

Radiator Support

Grille

ETC, ETC.... You guys get the picture, now can some of you guru's come in and tell us (or correct me) about the rest of the stuff?
