I need the 3 bolts and nuts for the shock tower cap, I looked on Mustangsunlimited.com and could not find them. Do they even make them? Thanks!

They are carriage type bolts, with smooth heads and a square pattern under the bolt head that holds them in the slots on the shock tower. NPD does have them, the bolts and nuts are sold seperately. The bolts are #18A017-1K, and the nuts are #18A017-2K. Each is sold in packs of six.
