Where to get body lift *bolts* from?
 
All i need is one bolt, My cab bolt decided to snap after some harsh articulation 2 days ago! A big LOUD SNAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do any of you have a spare bolt sitting around for a 3" body lift ??? or know where i can get one? I hate it when the passenger rear corner comes up and slams down. Def Not safe. Any help would be great!?

That would be great. Aren't they all the same length? Jw Idk? I can get a close measurement. I'll have to take the snaped bolt out to do so. The block is staying in place by the bolt being stuck through it. If i can't get the bolt out i may have to get another lift block. because I'll just cut it in half and replace the whole thing?

if you have to cut the block, i have an extra one of those also.......get me a rough lenght of the bolt and diameter and i will let you know after work...

fletch12518 02-02-2007 05:15 AM

ok I'll give you one hopefully by lunch time. But I think all the bolts are the same length. could be wrong. I'll take the extra block also.

i am guessing that you are talking about bolts right? i dont have one of the long ones i dont think but i will look for ya....

fletch12518 02-02-2007 05:39 AM

yeah mine is the passanger rear cab bolt. ima go get a guess-met measure

Sonic_03 02-02-2007 07:30 AM

****ty deal..i have blocks but no bolts..id try a hardware shop or call PA or wherever the lift was bought and im sure theyd send you new ones..

stockranger 02-07-2007 08:45 PM

Was the broken bolt grade 10.9 ? ......stock is 10.9 in the cab and 9.8 or whatever is same as grade 5 in the bed . I just did my 1" BL with all 10.9.....

Finding hex bolts that long in grade 10.9 will be tough but any local nut and bolt place can probably order it . you can get a fully threaded bolt that is plenty long and you can cut off any excess after you tighten it up(do not damage threads whan cutting it so u can easily remove it someday if you need to).

The BL how to on TRS gives all the bolt lengths for 3" BL. if u can't find it message me for the link.

fletch12518 04-25-2007 06:11 AM
