Absolutely. Something to be proud of. Parts from all over and now they look like they belong.

When you say tub bolts do you mean like at wheel tubs? If so, all good.
Reason I ask is that Jeep guys call the main body "the tub" and I'd be concerned if you used SS bolts at body mounts. I have some on the core support of my Cutlass that I re-did the front end on a long time ago and learned I need to replace. I didn't realize at the time that the stainless bolts were not up to the strength of chassis bolts.
