I've got an '88 4runner and I took the top off for summer and somehow lost the bolts. I have checked the local juckyards and no one has an old 4runner. Any advice on finding new ones? Are they bolts that I might find in a hardware store? Measurements?

I live in Wisconsin and its getting a little chilly for the no top thing.

 

do to a dealer ship and buy one, then go to a large autoparts store, like napa and they should be able to match the bolt with their stock of fastners.

 

Thanks. I'll give it a shot.

 

I have like 6 bolts from the top of a 89 4runner if you want them!

 

The head is 14mm....I know that much.

 

actually 12mm heads ..

bolts are sized 8mm X 1.25 X 30mm and should be avaliable at any hardware store .

There is one bolt on the drivers side , second from rear , that actuates a swithch for the rear door .. make sure it connects , or your rear window wont work .

i live in wis to were you at?

 

I'm in school at UW-Platteville. U?

 

I concure.

 

X2. There are 14 (fourteen) bolts in the top. But they are 12 (twelve) mm.
12mm also does the doors.

 

You can take all kindsa stuff apart on those Runners with a 10 & 12 MM tool.

 

Sizes as noted on the web page below:

The bolts are M8-1.25x35mm as bolts are sized by the diameter of the bolt shaft...not the head (or size socket you use to remove them).

You do use a 12mm socket to remove the M8-1.25x35mm bolts.
