Wrangler hardtop bolts
 
Does anyone know where I can find replacement bolts for holding on my
'99 Wrangler hardtop? I've managed to lose a few over the years and it
is getting near the season for putting it back on. Thanks!

The bolts are nothing special, just go get six matching bolts at your
local hardware store!

Re: Wrangler hardtop bolts
 
I had to replace several on my YJ. The bolts are standard 5/16" NC
thread, use grade 5. The nuts are special so you don't need a wrench. I
made some out of a piece of galvanzied "------er bar" used on chain link
fences at the gate post. About 1/4" x1/2". Cut into 1" chunks, drill and
tap 5/16-16

I'm all about making stuff, but how much does a dealer get for the nuts
and/or bolts?

My time is far too valuable to make a $2 part.
