The 8 bolts use the factory captured nuts, but the ones in tension have been reinforced with a 1/4 inch plate like the front range reinforcement. On a side note, it's fricken hard to find metric graded bolts around here. I had to special order those from Fastenal and all they had were those allen head bolts.
Lockable hitch pin would do it I think and (8) bolts sounds good.

www.mcmastercarr.com has all the metric bolts you want and very fast delivery. Their website is top notch as well. I look there first for everything cause if they don't have it, nobody makes it.

They ROCK!
