Removing an old fiberglass hold and installing a stock steel hood I picked up. I ordered the hydraulic hood props from Toms, the bumpers, and a few shims just in case. Since they don't seem to sell the bolts for the stock hinges, can you guys tell me what size nuts/bolts to attach the stock hood?

Also my bronco came with the original liftgate but it wasn't installed on the hard top. I reached up under the lip of the hardtop where it attaches and the wavy brackets are still sitting in there, so I also need the bolt/nut size for the top of the lift gate. Or are they screws? Thanks!

fender bolts. Everything on a bronco is bolted with them. From fenders to grill to hood and tailgate and top. You can get them at the local ace hardware but there like 2 bucks each. I got a big bag of them from JBG for half that.. I always keep 10 to 20 of them fender bolts in my bin.

I think there a 5/16".

I Usually poke some holes in a box and scuff and paint them, but since there zinc coated they don't rust as quick.
