kragen sells oe starter replacement bolts. make sure the idiot you talk to gets it from behind the counter in the black dorman drawers. not just any hardware bolt from the sales floor.

Re: i cant seem to find one?

yea i tried kragen. and first off let me say i went in for the bolt cuz i called ahead and they "had it in stock" i went in and after this long discussion of showing me other bolts i looked at the one that was "supposedly for my car" and i read the application guide and it was for front wheel drive gm cars from 1970-1980? the bolt was WAY too small and i told the lady ya this is for FWD cars ? and she said "ohh ? your car isnt front wheel drive?"
-1tuf92z thanks man if you find one let me know i will pay you for it

-Traviz i will try again to see i know a manager at one kragen

thanks guys for all the advice

I looked for it earlier in my tool cart at work but did not see it. I'll go look in the box of bolt in my garage later. I am babysitting at the moment.

Check this link and try calling kragen with a specific part number they seem to be better when you get specific with them.
