I would. Grade 5 should be fine. Use a lock nut.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Looking for install instructions to get bolt/nut size. Anyone happen to know what they are for the Hydro 7000?

Take the bolt off your other shock and take it to lowes or home depot and find a matching one.

Lol same thread in two forums!

Don't listen to these clowns. I would go to a hardware store like Lowe's or Home Depot and find a matching one. Might even take off one of your existing shock bolts for comparison.
