very good idea. did the bolts break or something, are you gonna stud the head after you fix what broke?

Its got a track bar drop baraket setup on it for the 5'' lift and it sheered the main bolt made a nice wammy sound when it hapend. Ive got it all back together now with grade 8 everything and its better than when I got it.

should be sweet. your going with 12mm studs right. cause 14mm just aren't worth it.

14s are bigger and you have to drill and retap the block and head, for what you want 12s are fine
