they are called carriage bolts and I agree with spikeman they are available at most autoparts stores But the very back two, by the tail gate, where different then the rest. I welded a piece of plate there and made a half inch square hole. so it would except the same style bolt

I used carraige bolts on my 84, but several different sizes, i think 4 inches fit all around decently

I welded nuts to my frame and just put in regular bolts to hold it down on the 4 middle ones because I had a 5th wheel hitch in there.

good Idea about welding the nuts on the other side. I had to remove my tanks to get the flippin thing off but with the nuts welded to the frame there would be none of that
