Bed Liner Bolt

The bolts are specific to Toyota and I doubt that either Fastenal or Spaenaur would stock them. Contact your local dealer for a price or try Ebay.

 

Fastenal DOES stock them, as a matter of fact. As long as they're somewhere in-between 1" and 2", I'm not sure, I've never pulled my bed out before. And they're about $45 x 50

Was thinking the same thing, if either of those places sold it, then I don't see why home depot wouldn't.

 

OP, once you buy a box of 50 you should start selling them on this site for a buck a piece and make your money back.

 

Those bolts here in the US are $13 and some change...

They're a litttttle longer then that.

 

How long?

 

The bolts I pulled out are about 5-6" long with a pointed end, some threads, then the bolt becomes a little thicker and at the top of the head there are more threads. Not your average bolt you can buy right off the internet.

 

I feel like this would have been pertinent in the ORIGINAL post, but however you want to roll with it.

 

Ordered the bolt, 22 dollars canadian for that dinky little bolt.

 

^ Damn, that's more than the $19 I paid for each UCA bolt. (I cut the head off each one to minimize folding the fender.)

 

Mine are rusted bad and I got quoted 1.44 ea. by Gatorland Toyota in Gainesville, Fl. yesterday. D-ring were 22.00

 

I couldn't get them out either, I think they are held in with cement.

 

i don't know if anyone else mentioned it, but don't use an impact gun to get these out. Use a breaker bar. The longer the better.

 

Yea, those are definitely frame bolts. Had one I used a breaker bar on, popped right out, the other one was rusted out and had to cut the bolt head flat on two sides to get some grip on it to get it out. 12$ from the dealer. Told me 12$ over the phone, tried to charge me 28$ when I came in to pick up.

 

i used T55 torx head, breaker bar and WD40 (used pb blaster after it started stripping, no success), got one out and stripped the other one, looks like i'm not doing the front d rings anymore

 

Clean the threads off under the bed before you start and then spray them with pb under and above.

If you start rounding off your t-55 bit I saved mine by grinding it down on a belt sander, until it was flat again.

Use anti-seize if you think you'll pull them again.

how do u fix the rounded down bolt?

 

If the torx is stripped out you are in need of a new bolt obviously.

My truck is rusted to hell and the two bolts closest to the cab only came up and inch and then stripped.

Just toss a pipe wrench on the outside of the head and replace with new bolts.

Worked for me with a pipe wrench. Make sure you do put penetrating oil on them to help since they are not easy to get out and you do not want to snap them off.
