Front clip bolts missing
I am missing the lower bolts that attaches the fender to the cab on both sides on my 85 F250. I literally laughed out loud when I noticed. Looking for what size of bolt and nut I can pickup.
From the factory manual, there is one bolt going through the cab to a nut mid way up the fenders. Then a bolt, some sort of shim, and a nut on the lower part of the fender that attaches to some support off the bottom of the cab?
Lining up an appointment with a chassis shop to get my frame straightened and get my bumper and doors lined up finally. I am sure missing those bolts will be an issue. Frame straightening regardless.

They should be M10 metric, 30 or 35mm long. The one midway up the fender is a smaller M8.
