74 Ford

I have a 74 ford high boy. I recently broke the 6 bolts that hold the lock out onto the front end. I am having a difficult time finding the replacement bolts. The bolt dimensions are 3/8 standard thread with a 3" shank and an overall length of 3 1/2". It is a button type bolt with an allen head. I had a problem with getting the felt peice for my enclosed front end and you guys were very helpful. If anyone knows how to get a hold of these bolts please help me out. Thank you

Other than makeing a trip to the junkyard, you might have to look all over the place.
I'm sure a junkyard owner wouldn't want anything for 5 little bolts.

Is this what you need?

If you have a good hardware store or a fastener distributor around you may be able to find these there. If not you will probably have to buy more than you need, but the price on these arent too bad.

Hope this helps.

Did you try a good parts store like NAPA? Or a dealership? They should be available as a replacement part... They sell most any other part in the front hub, I would think you could get those too.
