TR5 Stainless Steel Suspension Bolts and Wing Beading Strips

["Mike" <mike.tr5@virgin.net>]

Having recently restored a 1971 TR6 Damson with Magnolia interior I am now
getting my teeth into a 1968 TR5.
It will be a full chassis up resoration just like the TR6.
Are stainless steel bolts strong enough to rebuild the suspension in
particular
the large pivot bolt on the trunnion to lower wishbone?

Also should the wing/fender top beading strips be kept stainless or should
they be painted?

Thanks
