grade 5 are more likely to bend , but grade 8 are more likely to snap because they are harder. You might want to stay with grade 5

i dont know where you heard that but thats wrong... grade 8 is high on the scale for strength versus grade 5... grade 5 will sheer off, grade 8 will bend... i go to a vocational school for diesel truck technology.. ive seen grade 5 boltssnap constantly... ive seen a grade 8 bolt bend once.. thats it....
