Brian, I went with 8's were I could but I think I had to use 1 or 2 5's, the factory bolts are grade 5 (3 hash marks), 6  marks are for grade 8, the biggest problem I recall was gettting the 9-1/2" bolt at the top, it didnt come in fine thread so I had to go with coarse, and dont forget to go with new locking nuts as well and avoid the nylon lockers the steel ones hold up better.

PS: use thread grease, always makes it easier to undo in the years to come.
