Which bolts are you talking about? The ones in the hanger straps the hold the tank on the frame, or the ones that hold the sending guage in the tank?

Lou, I just went to Lowes and got some new bolts for my fuel sending unit. Pick a few that look close and buy them. You'll get the right ones, and at the most spend 3 dollars in the process.

If you want the part # of the bag of bolts I bought send me a e-mail, I will go dig in my trash in my garage and pull it out for you.
