Radiator Core Support Bolts?

[ToughOldFord]

Anyone know the size and length of these? I need to get them for the '67. Looking at my '69 it looks like there's only fender washers on top with the rubber bushings underneath. The '67 has the rubber bushings so I'm assuming all I need it the bolts and washers?

TIA.

Should be 3-4 maybe 4 1/2" in length. I believe the head on them where something like 11/16" not shure on the diameter of the threads though.

If you have a bushing with the washers attached you could probably take it into Ace ore true value or even Homer Depot. And test fit the bolt.

I'm wanting to say it would be either 3/8" or 5/8" Not shure on the thread pitch but as long as you get a matching nut.

You can go Hardened steel if you want but a zinc plated grade 8 is ok to use as well.

Thanks Robert. I busted one loose today and it's 3 1/2 inches long 7/16 thread. 5/8s head and 11/16 nut.
Just an FYI in case anyone else needs to know.

if you can get a socket on them. my latest truck is rounded off it seems like on one side the other side the support has rusted away around the whole bolt and bushing it just lifts right up.

my bolts when i replaced the Inner fenders and the radiator and painte the support where thin as tooth picks. Scary to think if i had got in a wreck before replacing this stuff.
