Class 10.9 M12-1.75 80mm-90mm long Flange Head Bolt is what I found via googling. hopefully I can find a local source if I need to for them.

If the regular home improvement stores don't there is a Fastenal in Odenton and Posners which is right off of 97 in that office park off of Dorsey Rd. I was looking at the Lowe's in Severn for M14 stuff and they didn't have anything that big but I think I recall seeing M12 stuff just not sure of the grade. Good luck.

Gonna try tackling my front axle this weekend. New balljoints, axle shafts, unit bearings and brakes.
Anyone know if the unit bearing bolts are available locally incase I maul one of em? I saw someone recommend 10.9 grade bolts from the hardware store as an alternative. Would they be ok to use?
Alternatively anyone object to just cutting the knuckle apart with a cutting wheel and not even dealing with them? I have a new set of knuckles. I would have to get new unit bolts as I would be leaving the old ones in the knuckles.
e. just hit 225k miles

Paul Warren at World Tour in Annapolis probably has a box full of em if you're that worried about it.

Gonna be a fun weekend. Next weekend is SYE install, and then the weekend after that is Adam's Jeep Jam.

More concerned about rounding the buggers off. I'm actually heading to paul's shop now to pick up a 5-760x joint so I can finish rebuilding the axle shafts. Also going to advanced auto and picking up the ball joint press and a bottle of antiseize.

Gentlemen, I'm torn between 33's and 35's. I need some advice and opinions. 6 inches of lift and I don't want to trim or re-gear right now. The Jeep bank is broke after wheels and tires. I'm definitely going with KM2's though regardless of size.

Anyone have any knowledge/experience of the Mickey Thompson Deegan 38's? I just saw this and they're getting decent reviews on the other forums.

Gotta do something different with the tag plus it needs a light. Going to plasti-dip the wheel so it more closely matches the others and figure something to do for a 3rd brake light as mines now covered.
e: ordered some LED tag light bolts and made a quick bracket out of some aluminum I had laying around. Will update when the led's get here.
