Backbone Extreme and stock mounting bolts
« on: July 19, 2009, 01:48:21 PM »
Hey guys,
I bought the 1/2 inch extreme backbone but i havent installed it yet. I have some questions for the forum.

Does anyone know the size of the stock mounting bolts?(length and thread size) Will using the stock bolts on a DDM Extreme 1/2 inch Backbone cause the stock bolts to not thread all the way into the body nuts of the chassis? Are the bolts pulling out over time a possibility?

Dr Love to the rescue, I would not use bolts from the autoparts store for much of anything, unless it was from a NAPA, the other chain stores sell crap. Fasten All sells good bolts if you have one near you.
