try and find an industrial fastener shop.  You might have to ask at your
local NAPA or other shops.  You will find the best hardware very inexpensive
their.  That failing, NAPA carries a selection of good quality grade 8s.
They might or might not have nylocs.  If they don't they sell something
comparable.  I can't remember the exact name but they are a little pinched
in at the top.  They work just as well.

Word of Wisdom.  Nuts and Bolts sold in packages at local discount auto
stores (Advance, AutoZone, PepBoys) are not good quality and do not match up
to their stated strength.

If all else fails they can inexpensively be ordered over the internet, you
typically have to buy a hundred though (quite often still cheaper).
