So Im guessing this is an uncommon question...but i was wondering if someone could tell me what grade bolts or nuts are used in the factory rear cradle. a friend of mine is going to tear the rear end of my car apart and replace the fuel lines alone with the tank and straps and he was concerned that he might break the bolts or nuts off and we would be in a world of hurt. its a 1995 240sx please any help would be great.

i dont know what you mean about "rear cradle", but if it has to do with any suspension parts and probably other car bolts, the grade of the blot are Double A, correct me if im wrong anyone?
