What dealer did you go to and do you have a part number? I went to Courtesy Chrysler looking for this exact thing and the parts guy said there was no listing whatsoever for those nutserts...I only need one so I may be willing to pay. Thanks

do you have a part number?

It's a bit confusing in the Mopar parts listing but try Mopar part numbers 06507904AA or 06506629AA for the bolts and rivnets.

Post by: Marco on January 25, 2013, 08:45:09 PM: i also have two part numbers from mopar, of which their exploded views dont actually show the numbers of the nuts and bolts. it was # 19 or so. but either way i spent some time with a knowledgable parts guy there and its still $21 per nut and $15 per bolt. i concluded those prices as nothing short of halarious (but not suprised) and decided to look for another source. this is a common issue with every yj cj tj skid plate and instead of welding washers and nuts to invent threaded holes i would like a quick solution after the originals are popped out. i shall check calgary fasteners tomorow! thanks for any input.
