Does anyone know the size bolt that holds the tin plate to the instrument bezel are? If i recall they are about 3/4 length and they can be screwed in. I think there are around 6 or em or so

Didn't find in the lmc catalog.

Thanks

I just finished buttoning up my tach cluster and I think they are #6 x 1/2" long (5/8" overall) with a 1/4" hex washer head, sheet metal type screws. There are 8 of them. The originals have smooth heads but it seems like the only thing you can find at the hardware stores have a slot or phillips head, or are self drilling.

This thread title excited me. I'm at the stage of re assembly and would really love to see a complete list of all fastener sizes for our trucks. Even though I bagged and tagged during disassembly, it can still be confusing. I haven't used the searched feature yet, and I'm sure it's already been done.

I’ve been replacing a lot of hardware on my truck and have been working on a list like this. Once I get some more info together, if it isn’t started already, I’ll throw some stuff up.

Would be a great sticky thread!
