Bracket bolts....where to buy?

[TurboSnake95]

I'm looking to get a new set of bracket bolts for the alternator and power steering bracket's, there are three long bolts per bracket. Anyone know where I could get these besides the dealership, since they will charge me an arm and a leg?

Thank you for the help,

Will

i got mine from the local hardware store (grade 8) for about $7.00. im sure they would have been considerably more at the dealership. that is of course if they still even stock those bolts.

I have my brackets off as well. I'll get the measurements tonight.

 

[95strokerPSU]

Measuring the length is gonna be easy but how do I measure the width (or diameter)?

 

[TurboSnake95]

well if you live next to a hardware store, or auto part store, I believe they have a devise in the bolt section that measures the width and thread type of a bolt.

NAPA I believe has such a devise

Thank you for helping

Alright, Autozone should be calling me today to come get my power steering pump, so I'll take them with me and hopefully they'll be able to help. If not I'll stop at Sears hardware.

the bolts thread pitch is 7/16. the length will have to be matched up.

 

[mytight95]

7/16-14......... on the two not behind the pulley on the power steering pump bracket, i think it is a 3/8ths thread on the one behing pulley..... and the one that goes behind the tensioner is 7/16ths -14 as well , not sure on the others i had that part back together before i remembered that.... but i think there are only two different thread counts, i believe the ones that aren't the 7/16 are the 3/8ths... and i am unsure on lengths, but i think they were all about 3" or so.......


sorry so late..

I'll get the rest of them tonight. Theres a total of six bolts and four different length/thread combinations. Now that I know that the thick ones are 3/8" and the thinner ones are 7/16", I'll get the lengths for all of them tonight.

Alternator Side:
(1) 3 5/8" length 3/8" thread
(1) 2 7/8" length 3/8" thread
(1) 2 5/8" length 7/16" thread

Power Steering Side:
(2) 3 3/8" length 7/16" thread
(1) 5 5/8" length 7/16"

I measured the length from right under the lip on the bolt. The thread diameter is based on what mytight said, I didn't have a chance to get to a hardware store.

 

[mytight95]

its 7/16'ths on the power steering side, for the big ones and 3.8ths for the others for the alternator bracket..... IIRC
