Hey guys, Im going to the hardware store before they close. I am buying some bolts for my PS brackets and my long lower alternator bolt, probably about 6" long? The gap measures about 5 1/4, anyways what thread are these? I thought they were 3/8 but it didnt go. 7/16?

Thanks...

Usually the long alternator "bolt" is a stud with 7/16 threads necked down after a hex nut to a 3/8 body stud. a 7/16 bolt wont go through the alternator. As far as the rest of the bolts go, measure the darn things and buy what you need! Surely you have a few bolts lying around to check thread size.
