Just came across this thread. I know its a year old but were you ever able to locate one of these? I am looking to buy one also and am about to the point of just having some made.
The bolt looks like a common M8x1.25 ~30mm long with 10mm head, as used on MANY Ford/L/M products since the late 80s. And yeah, it looks like it would be easy to copy that wedge with a 4.5" grinder, drill, tap, & a small chunk of steel or SS.
But with NO information about your truck in your signature, no one can help you find a genuine replacement part.
Yeah that's exactly what the bolt is. I got the measurements earlier and was going to have one made at big blue saw but it was crazy expensive so I'm going the route of some flat bar and a grinder.
Profile is updated now also- I didn't see that when I setup my acct. Thanks for the heads up.

I am wondering if you found the replacement for the bolt and wedge for your power running board? I have a 2012 F-150 Platinum 3.5L Eco. and looking for the same parts. Thank you!
