Bed Bolts

[cquinnball]

Anyone have the exact dimensions for all the bolts needed to secure the bed to the frame?  I know some are studs some are bolts. Mine are broken, rusted, etc. thank you in advance.

I know I have a few at the house, but I'm not at the house for a couple more days.

Okay awesome. Is there no options to buy new bolts that work?

[Pete M]

they are just bolts.  can't imagine it'd be hard to grab new ones.   but I'm happy to send some your way for the price of shipping.  I'm home now and I'll grab a sample later today and check what it is.

stamped 10.9, so they are definitely metric.  I'll bring one with me to Lowes to verify the size

they are M10 with a 1.5 thread

The only bed bolts I ever messed with were bolts with separate nuts.

 

if ALL of the bed bolts are that type, 3/8 grade 8 bolts with self locking nuts would substitute quite nicely.

There are a few that are studs (6 iirc). The studs can be removed in favor of bolts if needed but the studs do make it easier to line up the bed. The oem bolts though are M10 1.5 30mm long with a captured washer and a pilot-tip style point.
