Nuts and Bolts (6 Viewers)

When chosing a grade of bolt is it better to have a higher grade bolt than what Toyota originally had?

If you could get all the bolts on a cruiser would you rather have them all 8.8 or higher?

Reviving a very old subject. What grade bolt should be used for Body Mounts for 79+ tub?

Since OEM is hard to find or extremely pricey, has anyone used SAE Grade 8 bolts for body mounts?

 

[Krondor]

ISO 10.9 grade would have been standard. It is equivalent to an SAE Grade 8 bolt.

Since they are close by I dont typically use the website, and now that I looked a lot of what they have is not on the site, So I would give them a call, they likely have what you need. Although now with Covid they dont let me pick though the bins I have to wait out front, but they dont mind getting 4 of these and 6 of those with the specifics I am looking for.

i'm a fan of bel metric for my fasteners.

I am tempted to clean, tumble and re-coat oem hardware. Nothing (in my opinion) can replace the original Toyota bolts with the "target + number" on the head, for lack of better word. Not even new hardware from Toyota I have ordered. A giant hassle, yes. Apologies for asking, but regarding hardware, does anyone have a link to what was painted vs. left raw?

I am just starting to reassemble my FJ40 and ended up sandblasting and painting with a thin coat of polyurethane (ppg Essentials) the fasteners that were salvagable, seems to have gone well, but have not torqued them or had them in the weather yet. May need to use sockets that are one size up SAE maybe with painters tape.

I'm sorry but that has wasted effort painted all over it.

May have been, but I just did the heads

good morning, starting a 40 project and need to bolt the front seats in. She is a 77 40, I think I found the correct part number "9165160820" but I can't find out what size the bolt is. Any help is appreciated.

Pics?
Is it for the seat-to-bracket, on the back of the front seat?

 

[highrisk]

It is for the seat frame to the floor, I don't have pic handy,

Seat frame to the floor. But it looks like the same bolt.

91651-60820 = 8mm 6T (higher strength) bolt, 20mm long under the head, with captive lock washer and captive flat washer.

Or is it a 5T bolt?

 

[Dizzy]

M8 x 1.25
In checking, I discovered that mine needed re-torquing.

Thank you, is there a part number that is a reasonable replace ment?
