Does anyone happen to know the correct size bolt (and thread info) for the 2 bolts that attach the stock front skid to the frame? There is no way to the back of these 2 holes, so I am guessing they are pre-threaded.

Any help?

TIA!

10mm x 1.5 pitch. I don't know the exact stock length, but IIRC it's around an .75" to 1."

I re-used the ones from my tinfoil bumper mounting brackets. They fit perfectly. And were free!

On my 88 limited, they were 3/8 coarse thread

Pretty sure the two pre-threadded holes I used to build JKS disco holders were originally for the front skid. On my '96 these were 3/8 coarse thread. I searched and came up with all sorts of answers so maybe it changed around a little through the years?

I did the same. It seems that many of the bolts up front are the same size/pitch.

That is so nice to ave a hardware store on the XJ for missing bolt replacement, yeah?
