Stupid question but I am trying to save a little time so I can have my bolts ready when I need them. Regular KYB shocks. Just curious what size bolts I need. Stainless or not?

Thanks.

I use stainless everywhere except suspension parts. I always use grade 8 for high stress area like suspension.

The thing I don't like about stainless is when you go to take a bolt & nut loose they gauld up then you have to cut them out
I build with grade 8 everywhere
