really stupid frame question!!
just had a question and wanted to know, has anyone completely removed all the rivets on their frame, and replaced them with grade 8 bolts?
i was thinking the frame would twist more and cause a bolt to shear off!! or even come out of alignment but prove me wrong!!!  pics and opinons are helpful thanks

Re: really stupid frame question!!
I'm considering at least tacking the bolts together on my truck so there won't be any squeaking.
