Question Bed Bolt Size

Anyone know the size and length of bolt that holds the bed to the frame on a 2001 SWB 4x4 Silverado? My truck came with no bolts when I bought it from the PO.

Yup the 7018 will work....or 6010/6011 on the rusty stuff All jokes aside, post up what fits(I may need to slide my box off at some time, for a fuel pump)! I shot from the "hipp" on that one, but post your findings....I will write it in my book of notes crazyL
