That's a bit of a vague question

I bought a mixed bag of metric from namrick and it's done me well so far, I have had to order a few more bits here and there (some of the odder ones, like M12x50 socket caps for the diff) but not doing too badly. Make sure you have plenty of M8 nylock nuts though. All of the suspension bolts should come with the kit.

Its a bit difficult to specify every nut and bolt as it depends on your build. My advice is as above and buy a big back of mixed set screws, bolts, nylocs etc. Make sure they are 8.8 grade though.

Oh, and a load of 5mm rivets
