    Considering my truck's suspension is sitting on 9/16 grade 8 bolts, I'd say you're fine with those. :cool:

    thanks guys! actually the latch mechanisms are pretty easy to explain. they are the latches out of my factory tailgate :D i figured there was no easier way to have available replacements if something were to break.. the bushings are just standard 3" tall bushings that are used for everything from drivetrain mounts, to axle wrap bars to suspension link ends....

    Nice! Thanks for the info. Definitely a good call on the tailgate latches. Are these going to go into production or a one-off deal?
