Are grade 5 bolts good enough for the bolts that hold the caliper bracket onto the rear trailing arm?
Or do I need grade 8?

 

you want CLASS 10.9
metric bolts do not come in grades

(grade 8 ~> class 10.9)

 

ya i meant 8.8. was just having a hard time finding 10.9 where i live so thought id ask? Honda dealer is pretty expensive for bolts

as in expensive? or hard to find at places other than the honda dealer?

 

as in expensive.

 

Ace hardware stores carry 10.9
typically, 10.9 bolts are flanged...if that helps you find them

 

thanks for the help but im from Canada and i can find anything

 

and canadian tire doesnt carry them?
thats really odd....

 

i havent found a 10.9 bolt of any size here and have looked at many places

 

actually finding 8.8 bolts with the right thread pitch is hard enough. nothing metric all SAE

 

Do you know of any places online that I could order from?

 

well, i dont know if they ship to canada (probably do though)
check out http://www.mcmaster.com
I order lots of bolts and other crap from them

 

^^ Ooh... McmasterCarr, good supplier. The co i work for orders from them all the time.

 

i dont think mcmaster has 10.9 in the right thread m10 1.25
