Wrong bolts


The bolts I ordered are the wrong size.  The bolt on the left is the one I needed.
The bolt in center is what I got.  The can't be threaded all the way.  
The one on the right is the length I need so I can cut off the end to make it shorter.

Axle bolts ordered

Just ordered the socket cap bolts I needed to complete the axle shafts.  Their not a very common sized but I found what I needed from a place in Massachusetts.

The new addition.
2001 FORD F-250 SUPER DUTY LARIAT. 

It was a 1 owner (85yr old)with only 71,000 miles.
This will be our new tow vehicle that will replace our old van.
Been working on it for the past couple of weeks , brakes, ball joints shocks. etc. It has the tow package rated at 9000 lbs.
