I’m installing ACQ 2x rails on metal posts/brackets for a fence. The brackets have pre-drilled holes for two 1/4″ fasteners.
I have 1/4″ x 1 1/2″ galv lags and 1/4″ x 2″ zinc bolts on hand. I don’t think either is very good for my application, but I have to make a 100 miles drive to buy anything else.
I could hang the rails on one galv lag and then buy something else when I have to go to the city anyway.
What would you do?

have you thought of overnight delivery from McFeely or someplace else?

Thanks for the suggestion.I found out that there's a Fastenal store in another small town where I needed to go to get rough sawn lumber for the fence. I was able to get stainless bolts from them. Luckily, they had one bag on hand of what I needed.
