Wood bed bolts w/out the wood

I'm going to be putting my bed back on without the wood for now. Has anyone done this before? What type of bolts can I use to mount my cross rails to the frame w/out the wood?
Ideas?

By bolt kit and get some wood or I used leftover scraps from old wood to properly space bed.

Re: Wood bed bolts w/out the wood

I just used some leftover grade 8 hardware that is long enough to secure the bed cross rails to the frame mounts and the perimeter lip to the cross rails. you'll have to make a set of .75-inch spacers for the frame pedestals...
