gas tank strap bolts
 
Do they make replacement bolts for the tank straps? Or just use a hardened bolt that will fit the strap and mounting hole? Have a 87 F150 that I am replacing the front tank on and of course the tank strap bolt snapped while trying to remove. Any suggestions on a good replacement bolt?

Yes use the stainless steel bolts and nuts same size.

Do you know the size?

On my 88 f-150 i think i used 3/8inch with washers on both sides.
