Are them dealer only bolts? Or can you buy grade 8 bolts (or metric equivalent) to fit at the local friendly bolt/fastener supply house?
Anyone have the size? I have to replace the RF hub on my newly purchased 05 Dakota and being that I live out of town I like to have everything need for a job before I rips it apart.
TIA, Ken

Is it correct that you cannot replace just the bearing, but have to replace the whole hub and bearing as an assembly?
