I received a Grade 8 bolt kit from Northridge 4x4, I can't figure out where 2 of the bolts go. I received 8 bolts for the LCA's, 4 for the TB's and I have 2 more.. These 2 don't have the gold appearance as the others. Their just zinc or silver looking. Their good sized, I'm installing my Game Changer lift this weekend, I have the front done and I'm wondering where the 2 odd bolts go.

 

For some reason those bolts won't work with MC lift. At least that's what the shop told me when I had mine installed.

 

The front track bar for the 2013 and I think 2012's require a different bolt than the previous years, they supplied you the bolts for the pre 2012 trackbar, and the newer trackbar.

 

Correct. NR and Synergy include a 14mm tb bolt (2 w/ the NR kit) for the 2012 and up font tb. I have a 2012 but will not be using the supplied bolt(s) because I purchased aftermarket track bars and the supplied 9/16 bolts fit much better. Good luck

 

Thanks guys.. The bolts fit the Metalcloak lift fine, I was just wondering about the oddballs. Thanks again..

 

How much did the shop charge you for doing this?

It was winter when I got mine a shop charged me 50.00.

 

That's fair enough.i rather do that than spend a weekend struggling to get holes to line up.thanks for the info.

I'm not sure who had issues with the grade 8 bolts and the metal cloak lift but all the bolts fit perfect with my install. I didn't have any issues with the arms or track bars with the grade 8 set from Nothridge.

 

I noticed Northridge's bolt kit is for lower arms only and Synergy has kits for lower, upper, or both. Why would I not want to replace all of them?
