Does anyone have a source other than Quadratec for bumper bolts and more importantly the u-nuts for them? I need to replace all 12 u-nuts which adds up to $50 on Quadratec, the bolts add another $50. The hardware store doesn't have any u-nuts big enough, they do have bolts but they won't have the tapered end like factory. Bolts are M10x1.50. I checked the parts store with no luck and also looked on Napas website but they seemed to be even more expensive than Quadratec.
Thanks in advance!

 

What is the part number for the U-Nuts?
Is it 11500662?
These?

OK so you can't look online at Napa for these cause their website isn't clear.
Do you have one to go by?
Go to Napa. Ask them to see their blue loose leaf binder.
Hopefully yours is like mine and they have it.
In there are all sorts of items including the U-Nuts like I posted above.
Not pictures but actual pieces.
IMO you should have no problem finding what you need.
I replaced a few, I think 4, on the front bumper of my '00 when I did the tow hooks and whatnot.
My '00 apparently does not have anywhere near as many as a '96.
But I think, according to my parts catalogs, that it uses the same ones.
But I bought mine from Napa. Pretty sure they are these:

So like I said you can't tell anything from the website.
You're lucky I like you. LOL.
So I called my store and the those do take M10X1.50 bolt.
Come 4 in a package.
Cause while the website does not tell you **** the computer at the store does.
And that is what my friend, the store manager, told me.
So assuming I right about this thinking about $25 with tax for 12.
But you need to confirm all this just in case.
Good luck. LOL.

 

Thank you! That is very helpful. I will take that part number and one of my remaining good ones into Napa this weekend.

 

If NAPA doesn't have anything, I have always had better luck with ACE Hardware when NAPA couldn't help.

 

Would class 8.8 be sufficient for the bumper bolts? The only markings on the factory bolts is a 9.

 

yes

 

I picked up the u-nuts today, they were on sale and I had a $5 reward so I was able to get them pretty cheap.
Thanks again Ralph for saving the day!
