YJ Bumper Bolts
Anyone have an opinion on replacing YJ bumper bolts? I've read of as many people replacing the Torx 55 1/2 - 13 bolts with grade 8 hex bolts as I've read people replacing stock with OEM. Regardless... this happened today, so now I get to try to figure out how to tap.

Re: YJ Bumper Bolts
Yep replace them with grade 8 and use anti seize so it will not happen again.
Start spraying the other bolts now before you take them out. I would also heat them.
