What do these bolts go to?
I can't believe it's been almost 2 weeks since you first saw these bolts, and you're still guessing where they came from. If you can't figure it out by now, bring the bloody thing in along with the bolts, and have someone figure it out for you!!! What are you waiting for!??!
In addition, why would these bolts be falling in your driveway? If you've found several already, just lying under your truck, how many must have fallen out while you're driving? There is no rhyme or reason for them to just fall out when you're parked.
He's just taking us all for a ride in his truck. This post should of been closed because it's nothing but a prank.
If this happened to you how fast would you get it fixed, 11 days and no fix.
I'm all for a prank if its no safety thing- but 11 days and no update

That's what I was thinking.
I would make this guy man up and let us all know if this is a prank, only because if this is a prank and all the people who are watching this thread are wondering if this is a safety thing we should all be looking for on our trucks.
I for one don't appreciate a prank if it involves a safety factor on our vehicles.
Someone get a message to this person to either end this thread of give us an honest update.

Nope no prank. I did however take it over to a mom and pop shop and they said they couldn't find anything but u don't think they took the tire to thoroughly look under the truck. I'm taking it tomorrow to get it looked at by either the dealership or someone else. It's not a prank
Two clue's here...
Built -in lockwasher AND RTV sealant. This means the bolts go to a fluid cavity of some sorts.
Generally, small locking bolts with RTV that can fall out are usually transmission pan bolts because they are only tightened to like 11-15ft/lbs usually. They are also a bolt that could fall out and not allow leaking.
Transfer case bolts are usually pretty tight, but did you check anyway?
I just find it really hard to believe they are in your driveway and not out on the road. Very plausible someone is playing a prank. Have you found anything at your work parking lot? Just odd is all.
Drive shaft play is normal.
