So Many Broken Bolts, Need a Little Help
I took my skid plates off about a month ago since I was POR-15 the entire frame. Well a few of the bolts decided to snap on me. I tired looking for replacements at Home Depot but I couldn't find the right ones. I know they are 12mm but what are the specs on the bolts I need? On the other hand I getting really good and drilling and tapping the old ones out.

You have to go to a "good" hardware store that carries a variety of metric bolts. Most Toyota bolts are a .125 pitch tread. Take a good bolt with you to make sure.

Or, just go get the bolts from Toyota. They are the exact same price, and you know they are the right size and length the first time.
