Ford switched the production bolts from a course thread bolt to a fine thread bolt to allow for greater clamping force. Here are a couple of threads that give the details and also the PNs for the fine thread bolts and nut which allows you to increase the torque from 148 ft lb to 166 ft lb.

This is my DD, so all it see's is street use. So I assume the bolts would be fine for what I need them for? Also, are all camber bolts the same? I've seen some on Moss Muscle and some that BMR makes.

Depending on how big your potholes are street use can be pretty hard on the car!

Potholes aren't a major issue around here. I usually stay away from the rougher roads around here...I'm trying to get a clear consensus and see if theyre really worth pulling the trigger on.
