And as has been mentioned here before, look to your CAT dealer for a
great selection of fasteners at reasonable prices, all of which exceed
Gr8 standards per CAT.

If the bolts feel "rubbery" i.e. it's easy to turn a bit more than
possibly
the steel bushing inside of the rubber one is not yet contacting with
the
frame.
If the steel bushing is definetly bottomed out onto the frame than it
might
be the softness of the bolt making it feel this way... probably cheap
quality... event hough it's 8.8.  8.8 Made in China does not equal 8.8
Made
in Germany... sorry to say that.

BTW I think these are supposed to be fine thread... or is that newer
cars?
