OEM bolt specs for center console

[550+]

Is someone able to provide me the OEM bolt specs for:

1.Front center console base (under front cupholders)
2.Rear center console base (under rear cupholders)

My goal is to replace the bolts with ones that are ½″ longer to accommodate the thickness of the new sound-deadening under the carpet. While Google suggests they’re M4.2×1.69×19 mm, the parts the local nut-and-bolt store gave me didn’t match. I want to make sure I order the exact correct size and thread so I don’t risk damaging the console’s mounting holes during installation.

Offhand I don't know, but there are service manuals and parts lists available for download here in the resource section of the site, all TJ years covered. You should be able to find solid information in the parts list documents.

STICKY Thread 'Jeep Wrangler TJ Factory Service Manuals (FSM) & Technical Documentation'

This post is for TJ documentation like Factory Service Manuals Etc..
A while back I was able to find the FSM for my 2006 TJ. I decided to look at the same website I have used to download FMS to see if I can find others. I hit the jackpot so I am sharing :beer-toast1:

Please if there are any issues or they are inaccurate let me know.

Thanks @UpperMI for the additional 2002 manuals

Pull one of each out and take them to match up longer ones.

Walk into any ACE Hardware (or local hardware store) with the bolts and test fit them into the bolt thread sizers they have in the hardware aisles

You can get just about any bolt size there in a pinch. I order all my Grade 8 yellow zinc stuff from McMasterr Carr since Im local to one

Support your local hardware stores before Amazon chinesium is all ya have left
