La fan blade bolt threads fine???

You CAN get grade 5 and even grade 8 threaded rod, but you won't find it at "Ace."
We are in the same boat here. POS fastenal bought out the local bolt place, which was not that great, and then moved the damn thing clear out N of the airport. Not only is it a "fair piece" but it is on the so called "highway" with more stoplights added every day. It can be 1 1/2--2 hour trip if you hit it wrong......It's only 8 mi one way on the clock, but a terrible mess of traffic at times.
