Re: help!

that was the most important question are the bolts that hold the front suspension to the frame are they grade 8 bolts and which bolts on the truck would be required to be a different grade i am only guessing that some of the suspension bolts are a different grade but i have found they are quite different look than the rest, are there bolts on the frame that would require the stainless grade 18-8, or the softer bolts that would require less shear strength and flexibilty?

i do like the idea of a bolt "kit" for different areas of the truck to reduce the guess work

have been looking around for gaskets and seals for the truck but some shops are saying there is no really way to determine a part number (shouldnt there be one on the rearend or transmission somewhere) and that i need to take the seal to them to match up, still looking around for someone that has the assembly manual and shop manual for sale

i will be using an epxoy polimide for a primer anyone have any luck with a different type of primer one that sticks well and wha is the best type of paint to be using on rearend and transmission
