Sorry about the waste of bandwidth and inbox filling, but using grade 8 is
IMPORTANT!


WARNING!  First, NO stainless fastener is a "Grade 8", since the alloy is
specific to the grade-standard.  Second, most of what is sold as "stainless"
fasteners will not pass an SAE Grade 3 standard yield-test, let alone a
higher standard!  It is the LAST fastener you'd want to use on ANY
suspension component!

Does all the hardware need to be Grade 8 or just the long bolts that go
through the lower control arm?

I wouldn't use ANYTHING but an SAE 8 on ANY suspension part!

John
