Robbie,

Ho boy...HOME DEPOT didcha say? You really wanna trust those  $.08 bolts to
hold together YOUR ENTIRE FRONT END whilset thou are hurtling along yonder
racetrack in search of the ultimate cornering ride? Bolt snaps - front end
collapses. You would have a spectacular crash! 

Better to call up Korman's and get their specialty hardened bolt and washer
kit designed for this application. I think they charge something on the
order of $ 25.00 for this (+/-) and you can pick up some extra negative
camber on the cheap this way.

Not being a big fan of extended bolts with washer kluges myself, I use the
Dinan Camber Plates. More $$$$$ but they aren't going anywhere.
