or a junkyard for free. just put them all in your pocket and your good to go. maybe have to clean them a little.i scored a shifter trim for free at the junkyard too. decent condition, just needed cleaning. the guy just said have a good day. i smiled and walked out.

If there aren't any 240's in your junkyard look around for older nissan pickups. I don't remember the model but they came with an SOHC. There are quite a few at my local junkyard so thats where I go when I'm looking for bolts for my single wonder

i just went to ace hardware with a couple of the old bolts, and got some that matched thread and i was good to go.

If you want to go other than dealership/salvage, you can buy shoulder bolts with an allen drive (pretty nifty looking) [sockethead shoulder bolt].
