Hardtop hardware

[Kaida__K5]

Hey, I have an 88 k5 blazer and I’m thinking of putting the hardtop back on for winter but the hardware for the hardtop is missing. Where would I look to find the hardware or what would you guys recommend?

Welcome @Kaida__K5 . Someone will be along to answer this, you might want to put a wanted add in our classified section. Someone may have just what your looking for.

Maybe not super helpful, but I have used standard 3/8” (I think) bolts, they just lack the tapered/pointed end to assist in getting them started, but I’ve been able to use a pick or small flathead to align the plate washer then they go right in.

Agreed as said up above - other than the beginning tapper on the top to cab hardware there is nothing special about any of the retaining bolts and washers used.

Just use a pick to measure the desired depth of the holes and head on out to your favorite hardware store and come back with a bag full of bolts-n-washers.

Apparently 5/16

In general, search for "5/16-18 body bolt"
