1. NFI
2. Get metric - the rest of your car will be. When I fronted to buy bolts I asked for "M10" and he came back with 3/8 UNC - because he measured one of my original bolts at a fraction under 10mm. :roll:
3. Grade 8.8 or better
4. Nyloc nuts or spring washers + original washers from the car
5a. Queensland Transport will ping you for nylon lift blocks unless they have a metal crush tube.
5b. They'll also ping you for lifting more than 50mm.
5c. Make sure the blocks are at least as large (diameter wise) as the original rubbers/whatever is in there - if you go smaller you concentrate the load and risk cracking the floor.

Good luck,

Scott

And look for the other points that the body rests on and lift then accordingly using rhs or whatever is handy, also saves cracking of the body but , most people overlook it ;)
