I'm using the truck manual but for the bolts nuts and washers it shows CHEVROLET part numbers, not sizes. Anybody have a conversion list of part numbers to sizes? I'm using trial and error for now. Thanks for your help! Goal: to finish by year end

I have found SOME sites that list SOME bolts, but not all. It takes some detective work and some trial and error. Unfortunately, the fastener part numbers listed in "Standard Parts" (group 8.899+) in the Master Parts Catalog usually don't match the numbers in the Factory Assembly Manual. Some do / some don't. But it's a good place to start. > Master Parts Catalog Group 8.899 Here are some sources that I have used ... > Stovebolt postI see that the link to GMPartsWiki in the post is broken. Don't know if the site is down temporarily, or if is no longer available. If you can't determine the correct fastener size, then post a question - go with the answer that you feel is best. - Lonnie

I have an extra set, but I have always wondered where you would get them, I tried a regular bolt once, but they kind of need that tall, skinny head.... | | |
