looks good, but you know about using ss bolts right.

Are the SS bolts not good to use ?  All i know about them is they look good and you have to put  anti-seize on them

yes use the anti-seize, but sometimes they just dont wanna come apart and they end up breaking when
you put the torqu to them. good luck with them. i use break caliaper grease on them, never seize seemes
to dry up and then thats when you have trouble with them.

I only had issues with the larger bolts in my SS kit. I think it was the threads in the nuts.

Man i really don't feel like dealing with seized bolts.   Is there any other bolt kits out there?

you can send out your oe bolts for a fresh coat of zink, contact FX4. he found a place that will do them by the bucket full.
i am sure you dont have that many that need done, but i think it was a really good prices they had. plus his stuff looked great.
just like new.

i know it sucks to spend that money on them and then find out they are junk, i bought like 3 complete SS sets before i found out.
