I am at a total loss here. Tonight I went to a True Value store that was 30 min from my house, and they had 5/16" fine thread bolts. I was ecstatic, and bought 8 of them. I come home, try to put one in the holes, and it still will not thread in. Can someone please tell me what I am missing here? I'm going to end up having to punch holes through the originals otherwise.

I also checked the assy manual, and I'm not seeing any specific bolt size in there, either. Why does this truck have to give me so much trouble??!!
