Does anyone know what size bolt is used for the front muffler mounts (stock)? I had my can off the other day, and noticed the front left bolt/washer/nut was missing. I'm assuming it's the same as the right hand side, but I do remember the bolts having a sort of tapered tip to them on the nut side.

Front left? OEM is a loose/floating nut that is practically inaccessible.
If you can make the nut captive it's worth the effort.
I used a torch to heat and bend a wrench 90* to get at the nut.

I have a Drummer now, no bolt there. : )
