Is anyone interested in a kit that contains all original bolts, nuts, fasteners, washers, etc.... as in a complete kit of nuts and bolts to restore a truck to original with all new hardware. I once had a request to help a guy out create such a list of NOS part numbers and such.

And what do you think its worth?

Grade 8 does have better clamping ability, but there isn't anything on the frame that really needs that much clamping power in a regular driver truck.
Interesting.
