Rear Panel reinforcement bracket fasteners

Post by nitpicker » Thu Jun 16, 2022 1:42 pm

Does anyone know the size and number of the fasteners (and washers) provided with the Rear Panel Reinforcement kit? You know-the triangle gussets meant to strengthen the rear panel for the add on gas can bracket and the spare tire bracket...

Also, how were the bolt heads marked?

Thanks for your help,
Neal
