I have a tow strap similar to that one. I’m just wondering what size/kind of bolt it takes. Can anyone give me the specs, or recommend a place that sells them online?

Large, coarse thread.

But it appears to be an M16x3, which I found in maybe one minute of searching.

That part I've since learned, but finding a bolt for sale is becoming a whole other problem. Know where I could get one? Thanks

I did some digging in this a few years ago. Maybe an acme thread...

Why not just get a tow hook?
