Im replacing my trailing arms and toe rods. I know these are torque to yield bolts, so I called the dealership who said it would be $58 per side for the bolts. Does anyone know of a better price or place to buy these bolts?

Technically you should replace TTY bolts, however, when it comes to these suspension bolts just use some blue loc-tite and tighten until you grunt once or twice and they'll be safely fastened. I did a bunch of suspension work a few months back including said arms and followed the above method with no issues of loosening, noises, discomfort, etc.

Awesome! Also, I removed the knuckles for another project install. Can I get some simple grade 8 bolts for that?
