SqeezeMasterFlash Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Grade 8 is substantially harder. I can do a 5 on a good day, but haven't put more than a tiny kink in a grade 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJones Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 The Grade8 is much harder than a G5. Once you can go through some 5.5" Grade 5 bolts then you are getting close to the Grade 8. Congrats on the Grade 5 bend. Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meat Loaf Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 good freakin luck with the grade 8s. Imagine you are camping and you stumble into a bear. You shoot him in the balls and he starts running toward you. He breathes fire, too. The effort to then kill him with your bare hands is approximately as much as you need to also bend a grade 8 bolt.

Clay Edgin Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 I think Meat Loaf's description of the Grade 8 is going to be my new signature!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJones Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Meat, LMAO - I have been struggling to put into words the effort needed to get my first G8 - Thanks. Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deaner Posted June 13, 2004 Author Share Posted June 13, 2004 anyone know the approximate poundage to bend a grade 8? i saw somewhere that a g5 was 345# and the red about 400# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
