- I just did some rust repair on the floor of my '66 Ranchero. Not a big repair, but I had to replace the part where the seat belt bolts to the floor. All that's left to do is to thread the hole for th

- Go to a hardware store, or Sears, or sum such place and get a couple of thread pitch gauges -- one SAE and one metric. Cost a dollar or two each, and then you can always find out what pitch nut or bo

- There's a good chance that these bolts have a non standard thread pitch to keep someone from using a bolt that doesn't have the correct tensile strength. Safety Standards you know! Blake /// unsubsc

- I just measured the hardware in my drawer...1/2-20; these are from several of my old BMW's (all of which are metric). I seem to recall that it's a universal size, much like spark plugs were all one t

- That is correct. It is an oddball thread pitch. Ford doesn't want anyone messing with it. A few years ago a replaced the floor pans in my 69 Mustang. Had the same problem. I wanted to use the origina
