My bolt sets are an upgrade from the original hardware from the motor company.  Ford bolt hardware is 9.0 grade on all replacement bolts. The bolts in my replacement set are 10.9 hardness. Black phosphate coating assures a long-lasting condition that will compliment your braces for a total finished appearance. You will be proud to show other convertible owners your new braces after the premature rusted out parts. Sets are included with your purchase. They fit insiBlack Phosphate Bolt set smallde the uprights perfectly and ride with your braces for free. The motor company is making these bolts obsolete as well as too expensive. These sets are composed of 8 brace end bolts (2 at each end of brace 4 per brace) Next 2 bolts for body and upright attachment point, (1 each brace at top of upright).  These bolts are available at most top line auto part stores (Napa). They are a metric thread; 1.5 thread pitch. Two of these longer bolts are included in my replacement sets to complete the needed hardware. 8 + 2 + 2 = 12 replacement bolts total per set.  All of these bolts are metric thread; 1.5 thread pitch, make sure you get a grade 9.0 hardness.

ALWAYS USE BLUE LOCTITE.
