I have a First Gen
I was told by a few people the bolts for the bumper are m12 x35 x 1.25 pitch. I know these fit perfectly in the front two mounting holes but have had some issues with the two holes that are on each side for mounting. Yup, I'm a stripper
(also someone else mentioned the pitch might be 1.75 for those side bolts.)
Anyone know? I ultmately plan to drill through the frame horns and use grade 8 bolts when the weather is nicer and use a back plate for strength, but I need to make sure this sucker is safe for the next run I want to attend in January. I think I have stripped either two bolts or two holes hard to tell which at this stage
I'd love to use the original bolts to find out size but they went into a huge "bolt, fastener, etc" bag I have and who knows what biolt is for what at this point and the info I was given was supposedly spot on--it may be spot on, but if anyone knows the true bolt sizes for those bolts stock that would be awesome.
Last person who asked was Baf6 at the Clubx page and only answer he got was "drill though, sleeve and use class 8 hardware:
