Anyone happen to know what thread size the threads are for the screw in hooks/anchors on the 08 Frontier bed?
I am not referring to the cleats, I am referring to the screws in the bed wall.


Thanks.

David, even though I have the Utilitrak system, I bought the cleats and bolts from Courtesy and installed them for extra tie down points.  The threaded holes have VERY fine threads and are somewhat clogged from application of the factory spray in bed liner.  You need to chase these with a tap of the right thread size before any attempt to install a bolt.  And it is also EXTREMELY easy to over torques during installation and break off the bolt.

Go to the Courtesy site and llok up these parts.  It may tell you the thread size.  I remeber that my metric tap and die set (Crafstman) had one that was the correct size.
