These aftermarket bolt kits are affordable, and good enough, with 8mm Allen (hex recess) heads. At least 2 short and at least 2 long bolts of at least 6 bolts total are required; the other 2 can be either length. But some short bolts are not threaded as far up, so look for those with a noticeably shorter unthreaded shank. Genuine Ford bolts are much more expensive (new, but common & nearly free in JYs), but higher quality with T50 heads. Genuine
M14-2.0 nuts (~$3ea) are 1-piece, and threaded properly.
