I posted a while ago about my situation. 2 year old son lost a bolt to my car when I was under it. Its in the grass and I cant find it. The bolt is what holds the steering linkage to the rack and pinion. It has a 7/16 12 point head on it. If anyone can sell me one I would appreciate it.
None of the junk yards around here have Mustangs. I wanted to remove from another Ford anyways, but the grass around the cars was chest high, and for something that may or may not fit, it just did not seem worth the effort. Thanks.

Awesome. Ive been trying all year to get this car on the road and that's needed. Well that and the hatch glass. While I was looking for the bolt my 4 year old daughter tossed a rock and busted the window out.

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.

I lost a bolt once. Home depot had a magnet designed to pick up roofing nails from lawns and gardens. I dragged that around for b about 30 minutes until I found it.

Did you try a fine rake or strong magnet on the end of a broom handle. Ask me how I know about these.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

I tried looking 4 times. Twice on my hands and knees with no luck. It could be anywhere really. He likes throwing stuff away and bringing things in, like sticks and rocks. I might find it in the house some day. But rocks are now against the rules. Ive said it a hundred times by now. No more rocks.
