mvusse Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Buy new grade 8 bolts. The only problem I've had is a bolt pulling through the frame (taking the sleeve with it) and another bolt stripping out. But that happened trying to turn 33" tires with a locked front axle. I fixed it by plating the frame with 3/16 inside and out and retapping the stripped hole to accept a 1/2" bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
