I had to abandon the OEM spring bolts when I swapped to a aftermarket 2.5" FP. The larger donut gakset makes it basically impossible to get the bolt started without clamping the springs for extra leverage.

A regular nut and bolt should be fine. spring bolts help keep tension on the nut so it doesn't back off.
