If you use elevator bolts, you will need to grind about 1/8" off of one side of the head make it fit into the opening in the running board. The head of a 1/4-20 elevator bolt is 31/32" dia. The head of a 1/4-20 step bolt is 13/16" dia.
The previous owner of my truck used elevator bolts with one side of the head ground down and they worked fine. I have the boards off to prep for painting and will replace with step bolts from the Filling Station. However, elevator bolts might be a better choice because they are available in stainless.
