Sheet metal hardware question. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Rusty one · 10-24-2019, 06:50 PM

I'll be starting to mock up the front sheet metal and would like to know if anyone ordered the hardware. Ill be needing hardware for the front outter fenders inner fenders,radiator support ,radiator all the sheet metal that's bolted to the front cowl and bumper hardware

Did anyone purchase this hardware in a kit or will all the bolts /nuts/ shims have to be ordered individually?
Part #'s for the hardware will be a big help!
Thankyou in advance

Ya I checked again, I don't know why it does that. You can search for 5/16-18X3/4 large flange in "theboltbarn" eBay store. They're out of Cleveland, OH. The only place I found with the large flange bolts (at the time). I had later found them somewhere else I forget but they were all black and I didn't want those. Dog points? I believe are original however if that's a concern. You can buy originals (take offs) from Aspen Auto Parts in Arizona and clean them up. Good luck and have fun.

Thats a good price for the 50 pack. (Bolt Barn 50 pack)

They also have zinc and stainless.

If I didn't already have mine I would get those!

Forgot to ask...would you know how many of them I would need? 50?

**The Rocknrod** · 10-25-2019, 12:57 PM

Like I said get the 50 pack. I nickle and dime'd it all the way and should have just bought the fifty and got it over with.

Thankyou .. does that kit include bumper bolts and radiator support bolts as well? Didn't check the link as yet.

**The Rocknrod** · 10-25-2019, 07:02 PM

If you dont care about the proper "large" flange head bolts, either companies list above would be good.
