Do I have to go to the dealer for this bolt?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I replaced the axle bearings and seals on the 68 this weekend, and when I went to remove the cross pin bolt in the differential, the bolt broke. Is this a dealer-only item, or does anyone know of a vender that sells this particular bolt?

TIA!
Bob

Junkyard, it shouldn't be that hard to find. If it's a posi it will be longer than a single track. Should be the same from about any truck ( maybe even car ) 12 bolt.
