Default CV Bolt / Brake Caliper Bolt Question
Anybody know if the M8x45 brake caliper bolt can also be used as a CV bolt?

Stock CV bolts on my SC were M8x50 but the Lobro replacement axle units I bought call for the shorter M8x45 bolts (due to a change in the flange). Upon closer examination the part number for the M8x45 bolt which Lobro recommends is the same part number as the brake caliper bolt.

Only thing in the the back of my mind is if there are different properties of those bolts but then again an M8 bolt is an M8 bolt, correct?

Thoughts / opinions ?

TIA.
