    Somewhere in the process of doing a complete refresh on the motor and transmission on my truck, the bolts that hold the driveshaft to the rear end have gone AWOL.

    Can someone tell me what size bolt/nut goes in them? Thanks in advance!

    Oh, 1977 2wd

    M8x1.25 about 20mm long. 5/16 US bolts will work but the factory bolts are hard to beat. Just head to the junkyard and look under any yota made prior to '84 and grab them. :D
