Re: 55-57 Hood bolts
I believe the bolts are 5/16th with fine tread at 3/4 inches in length 8 Grade metal. I found 2 pictures maybe that will help!!

Re: 55-57 Hood bolts
Thanks Highsider!! But that is not my truck as I'm still at the stage of finishing off my front end and read end swap. But I did tap the bolts to see what size they were 5/16th X 3/4 inch fine tread and have bought the bolts for the hood to firewall as the Hood to hinge still have the bolts on it.
This is were I'm at now, I still have a long way to go. |

I'm not going with air as that is out of my price range, but I will be using Coil Over Shocks. We just finished off the suspension this week and I haven't had a chance to measure to see what length of shocks I need yet. I have other things on the list to buy first and the truck is going away for the winter, as I have no place to work on it. So next spring I will start the rest of the build. This winter will be reading the great post of builds that others have done and look for new Ideas as to what I want and how I want it done. Later. Cobra427sc. |
