What size torx for bed tie down?

What size torx will I need for the bed tie down? Thanks in advance!

 

I believe it's a T30

 

Flat head screwdriver works just as well.




vise grip if more torque needed

 

Thanks!

 

Try both methods and give us your feedback.

 

It might work, but why suggest something when the exact tool this fastener was meant for is easily available?

 

@Ron_Pro do you have the right tool easily available?

 

So I just realized I had a T30 stashed deep in my tool box. It’s a tad smaller, but I was able to make it work. I didn’t try the screwdriver method since I was able to get it off with the T30. I’m sure the screwdriver method would have worked as well. I was just lucky to find that T30.

I appreciate everyone’s responses. Thank you.

 

The best part of this thread: the correct tool is a T40. (T30 is for the taillight bolts).

 

When I got my Line x sprayed they took them off and sprayed the area but I had to take them back off to paint them black as they looked bad left white. Looks better now.

 

Yw

You should probably quit while you're ahead.

 

I agree. T40 would be the correct size, since the T30 was a tad smaller. However, the T30 worked and I was able to get it off just fine. Thanks!

 

It was a guess hahaha. Couldn't remember. Had to do it with total chaos bed stiffeners. That was a while ago

 

Had to do this because I tried using a t30 instead of the t40 and stripped the bolt in the process.
