Default Is there a list of stock bolt sizes?

I'm about to install my entire suspension but want to use all new hardware. I need to find out the thread size and pitch if possible so I can have everything ready to roll.

Track bar bracket bolts at frame
Track bar bolts at diff
Control arm bolts at diff
Lower shock bolts
Leaf spring bushing bolts
Brake line banjo bolts

Does anyone happen to know the grade of bolt needed for the leaf spring eyes and the control arms?

I know this is an old thread, but this may help others when they stumble across this search. I am currently sourcing lower bolts for the front shocks. It is challenging to find metric grade 10.9 for the M8x1.25x35mm in most hardware stores. Most stores that stock this size have them in grade 8.8 which is similar to SAE grade 5.
As an alternative, if you want this in a grade 8 SAE, look for 5/16-24 x 1-1/2
5/16" and 8mm are virtually identical in diameter.

Default Interested in packages

Hi I made an account just for this. I see that you are out of the ultimate package I'm going to be putting my lift on my cm here soon and was wondering if the shock package included the hardware for the rear suspension too ie the leaf spring bolts, rear shock bolts etc. I also have to replace my starring stabilizer. Is that in a different package?
