Everything up to the 72 is out there but the 73 & up seems kind of scarce. Any help in locating these bolts is GREATLY appreciated. I want to support the vendors here to keep the site rockin'. Thanks, Ron 73 roadrunner E55 D21 A36

If you want I can measure mine so you can replace it with a regular grade 8 bolt. I have the k frame out anyway.

Not sure a grade 8 bolt will work.

My bolts are not shouldered. And have 3 lines on the head of the bolt, indicating that they are Gr. 5. I used a wire wheel on a bench grinder to remove the caked on rust/dirt (took awhile). Now, I can thread on a nut using just my hands all the way up. Hope this helps. 73 Satellite 440-727-8.75 97 Ram Sport 4X4 5.2Magnum

I believe they have a special washer and a tapered self-tapping type end. I should have at least one clean set of 4 available. If you can wait until the 23rd I can check then.
