Are you referring to the bolts where the alignment shims mate to as well? If so, I am curious as well. Will eventually be replacing all the bushings and hardware over to new stuff. I remember when I brought it in for an alignment years ago, one of those studs snapped because they were so rusty. The alignment tech was able to use a grade 8 bolt. Actually did a fine job and I appreciated his efforts for a franchise store. Still holding up to this day.
