I'll post pictures and prices tonight or tomorrow morning. I had a long afternoon dealing with some rusted bolts. I'm running out of patience.
Sounds like you're making some really precise stuff there. I can't think of many things which require that sort of precision except aircraft, spacecraft, and nuclear reactors. Sounds like fun! I like when we localize production for fasteners or bolted joints. That is always a very deep design study to make sure everything is OK.
I'm in the process of swapping my real axle with parts from CruiserYard. The dealer was able to get all the appropriate fasteners. The only thing which was on backorder were the bolts for the sway-bar brackets. Technically only the dealer can get the correct bolts. However, if you have access to equipment to test your own, or sufficient information, there isn't a reason you couldn't find another source. If you can figure out the axial tension in the bolt and then find fasteners which can reproduce it, then you don't need the dealers bolts. Of course, it is a lot easier to just call Onur or Dan and see what they can do.
