Are Replacement Bolts Available for the Curt Cargo Carrier?

Question:
I love my hitch and cargo thingy. My question is: The holes that the supplied bolts are to screw in were so rusted that one bolt broke when I tried to get it on. Do you sell Plusnuts that would accomodate the bolts? I will need to drill out the rusty ones first.

The 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18152 does not have replacement hardware available but it just uses 3 M12 x 75mm hex bolts which you can find in any local hardware store.
Since you're needing to also drill out the hole, you'd need to use a 1/2" bit # PTW8589. This will make the hole slightly larger since metric and imperial aren't 1:1, but its close enough to not be super noticeable.
