Reply to "Suspension Bolt Size"

It is critical that you weld the step washers to the suspension mounting tabs as you’ll be relying on the washers for strength. The inserts that reduce the ID of the holes will only be 0.013”, which is paper thin. Any movement and they’re gone. Have you considered just welding up the holes and re-drilling them to 12mm? Welding on those tabs won’t be easy as some of them aren’t too accessible. Even cleaning them up for welding won’t be easy. I still think the easiest way to solve your problem is to enlarge the holes in the new bushings to 1/2”.
