Does anyone know where to purchase the mounting bolts for the trailer hitch on a 2000 4Runner? I took my hitch off to paint it and get rid of some rust and half of the bolts were almost rusted through.

Went by the dealer and they claim the bolts are unavailable without purchasing a complete hitch <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Looking at the bolts, they are flanged head 12mm metric extra fine, also known as a jis flanged head bolt. No place I've looked in the US seems to stock them.

Anyone ever run into this problem and if so, where did you get replacement bolts?
