What lenght bolts for the Dodge Connection steering box brace on the 4x4 model?

[ryangtp89]

Just ordered the dodge connection steering box brace for my 1989 Dodge Ram W250 4x4 with a 6" lift on 37's

Also just received in the mail my brand new Borgeson upgraded steering box & steering shaft.

So on the website it says I need these bolts:


4 - 7/16"- 14 x 1 3/4" Grade "8" bolts
6 - 7/16" Grade "8" Lock Washers
6 - 7/16" Grade "8" Flat Washers
2 - 7/16" Grade "8" Nuts


Now I know I will need longer bolts because mine is 4wd and the info on the website is for the 2wd. And the 4wd come with a side plate.

So do you think 2 1/4" should be long enough?

Also what length bolts to go up into the cross member under the radiator? I'm pretty sure I don't have to do any drilling because there's already a couple holes and a slot there.

This is a copy of the factory bracket right?

Prob don't want more than 1/2" max unthreaded shank on that bolt thru the crossmember. Thats about all the crossmember, bracket, and a washer add up to.
