Welcome to FTE! I have a 55 F250 as well (In pieces)
We would love to see pictures of your truck, no matter what the state of repair.
The mounting bolts are the same as the ones for the F100.
Mid fifty has a nice picture of the set:

But it dosen't mention actual size. I'm not very bright with bolts, I would have to take it to a hardware store and match the size. Which I can do if you like, or no one else comes around to give you better specifics.

Here is mine, it looks to be 3 1/8 inches long.

Here is most of the other hardware:



I'm missing one grommet, for some reason I put it in another bag...

 

Keep in mind it's a shoulder bolt, not likely common. (Not really clear in the manual if this pic is for an F-100/250 or a bigger truck)

 

Hey guys, thanks for the reminder. I haven't installed mine yet and now that I have the front fenders on I've been driving it almost daily.

 

Fyi, This is th correct way to measure a bolt.

 

As far as I know it's a 1/2" fine thread bolt, not sure of the length at this time. I couldn't find it in the parts book but in the parts book pic they have a star beside the number which I think means to improvise with an ordinary bolt. I believe they are the same F-100 to 800. I simply used a grade 8, 1/2" by 20 (coarse) with a nylock nut, but I'm not to fussy.
