I'm tearing down my entire bike and im tired of rusty bolts, time to do it right with stainless. I just want a good bolt kit.

 

Also when i order some +3+1 a-arms, do a-arms come with new bolts/nuts?

Get the full bike kit from Alloy Bolts (on Ebay)for your new build.

Remember....Anti-seize EVERY BOLT. Even the little ones for your plastics. Any bolt that doesn't get Anti-seize....should get blue lock-tite.

Also...there will be a few items in the kit that won't work. Don't sweat it. Just stick with the stock stuff for those few items. If you cut the nice labeled bags....you can put the stock stuff in them and tape them closed and have a complete correctly labeled stock bolt kit ready for emergencies.

Thank you guys for the help. Speaking of anti seize, should i put some on my axle splines? It's been a good 4 years since i installed my axle but i'm taking it down to be powder coated and get the little bit of rust off. What's the best method to decide if something gets anti seize or lock-tite?

x2 on anti seize, I learned the hard way on a shock bolt when I first bought a kit. The stainless kits look good. Are you just wanting the plastics bolt kit because if you don't want to spen for the whole kit I have a ton extra including the plastic bolts. Just a little fyi I can sell them to you.

Allen heads = junk. I fucking hate those things.

 

I guarantee you I would never use stainless bolts for anything with weight or pressure on it. They are not made to withstand a load.

the bolts on the rear spocket have load. Some swing arm and suspension stuff. that's all i can think of. Am i missing anything?

 

I didnt even realize they were allen head. I dont want that either. I want regular stainless heads that i can put a regular socket or wrench onto. Am i shit outta luck?
