[QUOTE="doc-ketamine, post: 438023, member: 20662"] Guess I'll go back to grade 8 bolts at 5" long. So I'd be good with a nylock nut, fully engaged (all threads biting) but able to spin the bolt ...? Or skip the nylocks? 100ftlb on the bolts I have with the shackles I have seems to not deforming anything, the steel on those shackles is beefy and the sleeves and bushings may help prevent any warping. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
