D60 full float swap

My newly rebuilt and painted D60 full float is ready to install as soon as I get my springs back. but the axle retaining bolts are really rusted. I've seen plated or anodized ones before, but I can't seem to find them now. I can always paint them, but I'd prefer something more rust proof. Anyone know where to find bolts that won't rust?

Looking good!


I've been sourcing grade 8 replacement bolts with yellow zinc plate from Fastenal on my dynatrac big brake/steering knuckle upgrade.
