Title: bumper bolts what size? Post by: Ed on October 31, 2005, 11:02:02 PM Hi guys,
I'm about to go down to mullings, what size are the end bumper bolts? I'm planning on 5/16" x 1-1/2" for the middle section. im assuming front and rear are the same (for end bolts). help appreciated., Cheers Ed Title: Re: bumper bolts what size? Post by: mcl1959 on November 01, 2005, 02:18:33 AM ED, front bar end bolts are 5/16" x 1 5/8"
front bar corner bolts are 7/16" x .88" rear bar end bolts are 5/16" x 2" The reason the rear bolts are longer is because they have a rubber insert on the nut side of the panel and generally the rubber spacer in betwen the body and the bar is thicker on the rear than the front.

Closest I got in SS was 5/16" x 2" and 3/8" x 1 1/4", the guy was pulling weird faces when I passed Ken's dimensions over to him. What did you use for the rubber spacers? Title: Re: bumper bolts what size? Post by: leon on November 24, 2005, 10:38:34 AM :)G Day Stinky.
I used the large black rubber door stops. Just cut them down to size then job well done. Regards. Leon ;) Title: Re: bumper bolts what size? Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on November 24, 2005, 10:45:02 AM Thanks Leon, another job sorted. :D
Title: Re: bumper bolts what size? Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on November 25, 2005, 02:19:06 AM I took the 3/8" x 1 1/4" bolts back today, too small.
Went around the corner to Coventry Fasteners and the bloke came up with 12mm bolts that fit perfectly (took bumper section with me). $10 a pop though and the head needs work to polish up.
