So what did you do Tig?
Remember if you replace the bolt to check grade. SS bolts are only grade 5 You can get chrome grade 8 bolts which end up being what they call 8.8 grade. |

'8.8' is a metric class designation which is roughly equivalent to SAE grade 5 fasteners, and they are available in chrome-plated. Class 10.9 are roughly equivalent to SAE grade 8, and 12.9 is an even stronger class which doesn't have an equivalent SAE counterpart. (Sorry to geek-out on ya, but I had to chime in since this crap has been my bread & butter for a while... )In that application, I'd use 10.9 - but then I don't think I'd use those adjusters in the first place, since I think they're a poor design (even though they look kinda cool).

No, that would be for show/corrosion-protection only.
