HELP Fuel tank strap hardware specs

[Injectedcutty]

Hey guys, would any of y'all have or know the size of the bolts/nuts that fasten the front side of the tank straps?

I pulled a bolt/nut from the rear side of the strap at a yard recently, but Pull A Part mounts the cars on the tank, and getting a front bolt out was tough to get to as well as unsafe.

Thanks in advance!

Haha, the rear bolt and nut combo is a metric flange head measuring M8-1.25x75
Most places only have a 70 (too short for proper thread engagement) or 80mm long. I will get the 80mm length and stack a few washers to take up the 5mm difference if needed.

Donovan sent me a pic of the front side strap bolt. From the info he gave me I determined it's an M10-1.5x45mm bolt going through a threaded U clip similar to our fender hardware.
