Re: body mount bolts

Measure the inside diameter of the bolt holes; this gives you the bolt size. Stack up everything that the bolt needs to go through, add about 3/4 of an inch; this gives you the approximate bolt length.

Re: body mount bolts

Not that it answers your question either, but from what I remember they are standard 1/2"-13 bolts. 3.5 or 4" long. Nothing exotic by any stretch.
