Default U bolts

I have a C15 with a Australian No 1 timber body.The bolts that hold the body to the chassis are as described by Bob Carriere. The cup head bolt passes through a plate with a square hole to lock the bolt from turning and spread the load across the body floor and then another plate under the chassis puts the pressure across the bottom of the chassis rail.My body has a chassis stiffener/spacer grooved to fit the bolt and sit snug inside the chassis rail.
All very interesting,
Robert
