Anyone have a source for M6-1.0 Retainer Weld Nuts for the transmission hump? The only place I've found them is at Fastenal ( M6 x 1.0 x 1/2"W x 1-1/2"L PlainFinish Steel RetainerWeldNut | Fastenal ). I ordered 20 ea but was told they have a 100ea minimum from the manufacturer. They're $1.36 each (100ea @ $136.00). If I have to buy the 100ea, would anyone be interested in buying any?
swapped a 69 fj55 body onto a 79 fj55 frame; need the body to frame bolts as during the process broke off quite a few and the remaining ones are pretty sorry; are they the same as on the 40s?.......TIA

can get small quantities of these from mcmaster carr. IIRC packs uf 5 or 10
Thanks! I'll check them out.
Update:
Got them on order. I don't know why I always forget about them for nuts and bolts. Cheaper than Fastenal as well... Thanks again!
Has ANYONE heard from Kevin@boltdepot about pricing or their quotes? I can no longer wait to order bolts and can't afford to wait weeks to get a simple bolt order.
Merbelsfield: What was the final answer to the pricing?
The codes for all the cruiser bolts and torques are decoded in the Worskshop manual. Page 14-23
Theres a method to the madness:
I.E. 91111-40620 Last set of digits: 4= Bolt head mark; 06=Major diameter of thread 20=Grip length (from under head to end)
Have any of you guys tried Caswells plating kit? I have and have had great success!
Looks like we are back to square 1.
Just spoke with the local auveco rep and most of the part numbers for the M6 and M8 bolts have either been discontinued or are only available in bright zinc.
The rep is looking at other manufacturers and I will let you know if another distributor pops up.
