Bolt on Sliders.. what kind of bolts?

[kup99]

Picked up some trail gear sliders a while back, going to trade some stuff with a friend, but I never received to bolts to install them when I bought them.


What grade? What size?

Thanks,

8mm x 1.25, about 20mm long if I remember correctly. Grade 10.9 or 8.8.

M8x1.25x35 Grade 10.9 if Metric, but don't hold me to it. I'm sure someone will chime in. I guess I waited too long

^^ yep.

Go with 10.9 to get your Grade 8 hardened bolt. Make sure to use a good lock washer and washer also.

It's what I bought boxes of for my sliders. Be sure to run a tap with lube in those holes prior to bolting or you run the risk of siezing or breaking.

Kosmo - interesting sliders - looks like they double as shish-kabobs!
Gotta overhead or angle shot?
