So, I’ve searched here multiple ways. Reading posts from as far back as 2004. With no luck.
What size is the nut & bolt that attaches the radiator guard (grille) to the frame? I also checked jeepdraw, and the SNL Section 18. No luck.
I had the grille off to install some new welting. And now I can not find the single nut/bolt/washers that I removed to accomplish this.

Re: GPW Radiator Guard to Frame Bolt Size
The SNL, page 182 group 2103, with a big picture of the grill, which lists them as 3/8ths x 16 NC x 7/8ths; (Willys only) and your Ford parts list TM10-1346 page 78; which lists them as 3/8ths x 16 x 1.

Re: GPW Radiator Guard to Frame Bolt Size
Scrumps and dpcd,
I looked for your references, and found them. They are down in the fine print, for sure. The Willys Only threw me off, as did the quantity.
Now I know.
Thanks.
Parker,
I used the McMaster-Carr 7/16 x 1 1/2 Carriage Bolts for the underside of the radiator. They fit perfectly.
