We're about to order stainless carriage bolts for our rear bumper that will be reinstalled during our Merrell hitch installation later this fall. We will order the 316 stainless bolts. But there are also 18-8 stainless bolts available that are less than 1/2 the price. I'm curious - what's the difference? I didn't realize there were different stainless options. I also noticed in looking for "bumper bolts" some are not completely stainless but are "capped" with stainless steel.
