So went in a long long time ago to get an oil change done on the 3 and they apparently lost the majority of the bolts and washers that hold up the front skid plates because none of them match. Any idea what the factory sizes are that I need ecause these are mostly really thin and look like they're bending haha.

Thanks guys!

I went with 40mm in the rear as when the skids and/or UCP get bent they are harder to line up and the longer bolts help secure it.

Anytime my truck has to go to a dealer, I now remove the skid plates and UCP myself. Once they stripped the threads with an impact and once they forgot some of the fastners and my UCP was hanging from one end.

It's just another reason why I don't bother with the dealerships except for the parts counter. I had a bad warranty experience twenty years ago and I'll never forget it.
I think the two middle M8 bolts are 40mm, and the front and rear set are the 30mm size. I'll keep doing my own work as long as I can manage it.
