Re: Best places to purchace bed bolt kits?

I just picked up 8 4" long zinc coated bolts with nuts/washers at TSC. Worked fine on my '67 long bed. Maybe $5 - they sell by the pound.

Re: Best places to purchace bed bolt kits?

I bought all stainless steel bolts on eb.. and got them for about the same price as regular zinc coated stuff at the local box home imp store- I did have to set up my buffer pad on my drill press and polish the heads of the SS, but it was very quick.. Seems like I paid about $30 inc shipping for all to to my short fleet bed- bolts, nuts and washers all SS
You just have to know bolt sizes and lenghts you need and make up your own kit

Not much of a pic but we like pics- the bed floor isn't rough, it has water standing on it

Re: Best places to purchace bed bolt kits?

Having bought from all those places I'd say Mar-K stands out for price and service.

Re: Best places to purchace bed bolt kits?

I also vote for Mar-K. For the rest of the bolts I went with Totally Stainless.
