BMR Front Safety Loop Bolt Size?

I need to know the size of the bolt that is provided with the BMR front safety loop. I know it's a grade 8 but that's it. I need to get longer ones and the orginials are on the car.

Rich, almost certain that you'll need (2) 9/16 x 1.5" Grade 8 bolts (bolt head ID marks will have 6 short dashes).

Using a 0.350 shim, around 3 threads will protrude past the nut.

Should be readily available at Osh Hardware.

Don't you mean 3/8" - 24 x 1.5"?? If memory serves me correctly they are fine thread.

I have the same setup. You need 3/8" x 1.5" fine thread. I ended up using a 0.350" shim also. It only head of the bolt that is 9/16".

I remember that they are fine thread and that they are grade 8 but that was it. Thanks for the replies guys.
