Winch mounting bolts? Melbourne/Geelong

Post by beretta »

Has anyone got some spare winch mounting bolts, need to mount up a winch, but dont have the bolts to mount it into the bar! Pretty handy hey!

Otherwise I'm off to a bolt shop, I assume they are high tensile bolts?

Thanks heaps for the help!
