What grade bolts to mount seats
I am getting ready to mount new seats in my Studebaker. These are seats from a Chrysler Sebring convertible that have integral 3 point belts. The mounting needs to be able to stand up to g-forces associated with seat belt anchoring. My floor is re-enforced and plenty strong to bolt the seats. Next question is what grade bolts to use. Is grade 5 adequate or should I spring for the grade 8s?
Most of the bolts will be clamping force, but a couple will have side stress.
thanks
PatOf course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!
Today I placed an on-line order for two items, a chicken and an egg. I'll let you know which one comes first!! :HMMM:**):rolleyes:
