Looking for a couple of non standard bolts for the FJ.

I have run out of options.
Fastenal was my first and best option, as they listed the size I need, zinc coated.
I even ordered two bolts through their online page.
But the next day, they emailed me saying they were out of stock, and wanted to know it a cheaper bolt would do.

I replied, it would NOT, and I need the bolts I specified.
Still no responce back from them, so, I am looking online and just not finding what I'm looking for.

If anyone could help point me in the right direction, I'll be more than happy to try your suggestions, but I'll tell you, I have entered my bolt size into a google search and I'm not getting much help that way.
Maybe you guys might have a local store near you that handle hardware.

I have checked all the area auto parts and hardware places with no luck.

The bolt(s) I'm looking for is, 12 X 1.25 X 140 mm, zinc plated.

Thanks,
Leon

What's the application?  That fine thread pitch is killing you.  McMaster Carr and Metric and Multistandard only go to 120mm in the 1.25 pitch.

They are for the dog bones.
I made larger replacement bones and the stock bolts are just a little too short to use.
The thread pitch is what the OE nut is, and I thought I'd reuse those, if I could.
Going to another thread pitch is not that big of a deal, but I thought I'd start somewhere.

Something like that?  It lists fine thread as 1.75 rather than 1.25 though, and I'm not sure if that's a 1.0 instead (as it's unlisted).


OEM PN is 90101-12673-00 (bolt) and 95617-12100-00 (nut).

It appears your search will be easier if you change the thread pitch, and buy new nuts.


When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

Thanks guys.
Seeing as how Fastenal has my money at this point, I suggested to them to see if a different thread pitch is availible.
I appreciate your help, and hopefully I hear back from them, either way, so I can keep moving forward with my project.
