Colin Ablewhite Posted December 13, 2023 Report Share Posted December 13, 2023 Hi all you knowledgeable people. Just a quick question. Does anyone know the tread size on the domed headed bolts that fix the front of the hard top. I had a difficult day attempting to install my recently renovated hard top and may have clumsily damaged the thread in the captive nut in the lid. I’ve ordered new bolts but may have to retap the nuts. colin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kevo_6 Posted December 13, 2023 Report Share Posted December 13, 2023 Hi Colin, I’m pretty sure they are 5/16” UNF. Hopefully someone else will be along soon to confirm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
