The question I have first, is this a good list of spares/replacements? Second, would it be better to buy a set like the Metalcloak builders set (https://metalcloak.com/grade-8-suspe...-wrangler.html) or buy these (Grade 8) at a hardware store? Also for the hardware store option, does anyone have the sizes of these bolts and nuts?

 

Grade 8 locally.

 

man unless your stock ones are rusted and corroded really bad you are going to spend a chunk of money if going oem for stuff you will never use.

 

I can't tell you how many times my factory bolts have been on/off my suspension components with zero issues. The one thing I can see replacing is the TB bolts. Everything else I've replaced if something comes with new bolts, if not, the factories remain. Every bolt that comes off I measure head size, length, thread count, and log what it went to....put in zip-lock bag with details written on paper in the bag, and goes in my trail bag should I or anyone else need one. I can see picking up a couple spares just in case, but I personally don't see the need to replace all bolts.

 

Thanks, Will play it by ear and hope the bolts don't snap on me. If so will be looking at the local ACe for Grade 8 replacements

 

Northridge has the grade 8 kit. I'd do that before I spent money on the OEM stuff.

 

Forget the OEM and just get grade 8 at your local Ace Hardware. Way stronger and way cheaper.
