Hey Guys,
I'm bolting my front crossmember onto my car since I'm not set up to do the correct riveting. I'm using grade 8 bolts with nylon locknuts in every hole where there would have been a rivet (14 total). My question is......Is there anything I should or shouldn't do when bolting my crossmember in? Thought I'd ask y'all since i couldn't find nothing in Andrew's book or by using the search function.

Thanks in advance,

Josh
