thanks alaskan155 , so the main bolts i have to buy are :

qty size
8 7/16" (12mm) x 7" (180mm)
2 7/16" (12mm) x 9" (23mm)
10 washers 7/16"

is that correct or i miss something .

You are correct

The lengths sound right because i used 4 and 6 inch bolts with no body lift just stock bushings. The long ones are the very back most ones. I used 1/2" grade 8 bolts and where the nut would touch the bushing a fender washer not just a a regular washer and I remember using washers to shim a few bolts because the threaded section was slightly to short so buy extra standard washers.

can i use the 5 grade bolts ?

I'd use grade 8 but grade 5 should work fine too. Depending on how much thread you need, you could probably use the 8" and 10" ones and cut an inch off. Dunno what your budget is but maybe Fastenal would ship stuff to you too.
