I feel like an idiot...Again!!!!

I asked this before and I had a PM with the answer but stupid me I deleted it yesterday so I'll ask it again.
And before anyone flames me I looked in the stickies (brake section) but DID NOT see the answer.
What is the size of bolts, nuts, and washers needed for the BBK install I'm going to install tonight so I need to get them today.

Yea I need to find that out also.

I know you can get them at ace hardware or somewhere.

They are grade 10.9 Take your stock brake caliper bolt out and purchase that size one. That is what zack told me to do.

Do you just "tap" the Hub ring on to the back of the rotor with a hammer? it will not just slide into the center of the rotor.

It's often a tight fit. How well did you clean off the hub surface? It's usually dirty and scaly with rust etc... I recommend a wire attachment on a drill or at least a really good clean with a wire brush.

After all that, you can put a touch of grease on the hub to help slide it on.

You think you feel like an idiot? I lowered my car yesterday and forgot to tighten the top nuts on my right front strut.

it sounded like the world was coming to an end.

new hubs so no dirt at all I just needed to get the ring into the rotor. I think they will tap on with out to much force I just wanted to know if I should "tap" them or not
