Re: stepside bed bolts
Not complete but it should be a good start. The thing I have noticed is every vendor seems to put together kits that will work but may not be 100% correct (I don't really worry about this)

Re: stepside bed bolts
If you get stainless bolts and you want them to be mirror finish, you can polish them easily, takes about 30 seconds per bolt.

Re: stepside bed bolts
The bolts can be sourced locally . The only thing I couldn’t find were the offset washers . I ended up buying a kit from a vendor
