Question '81 Pickup Bed bolts

Does anyone know what size the bed bolts are (the ones that connect the bed to the frame) or where I can get new ones? The dealer told me they are a discontinued item.

I have a whole bunch of used ones (restored condition) ... PM me if your interested
OE bed bolts are "cam'd" so they are not readly avaliable threw the aftermarket to my knowlege ..

Thanks Corey, don't get me wrong the original bolts, washers, and nuts are not in horribly bad shape. I was just going to replace them if I could, being I've replaced just about every other nut and bolt on the truck. I'll just clean them up and reuse.
