Samberg diff brace w stock bolts?
« on: March 12, 2014, 01:47:07 AM »
Hey all,

I bought a Samberg diff brace used that didn't come with the mounting bolts, the 4 on each side where the chassis braces go. I took a look and it seems like the grade 10 ones on the outer holes will thread all the way through even with the increased thickness of the mount.

Can I reuse the inner gray ones though? They're not stamped with anything so I'm not sure how strong they are. I don't want to have them break on me when I'm driving. If not, anybody have suggestions where to pick up metric grade 10 bolts in SoCal?
