Hey all, finishing up some of the last work on my GX, and ive had to cut several body mount bolts. is there a hardware store replacement any of you have used? and if so what size? its the 4 bolts around the center of the cab, below the doors.

I'd just remove a bolt and take it over to Ace hardware. Grab an equivalent Grade 8 zinc bolt. Most automotive bolts are grade 5

A thread checker tool is a great add to the toolbox! https://www.amazon.com/Nut-Bolt-Thread-Checker-44/dp/B0CSKBMD76?tag=ihco-20

 
i ended up going to a speciality fastener supplier. while they didnt have the exact fit, (oem is m10x1.25 i think 165mm) i did find m10x1.50 in 150mm and 170mm. i got both bolts, with associated hardware and they worked just fine.
