Receiver Bolts.. What size?

I hate to ask, but I haven't been able to nail anything down in the last few months.. I have a class III receiver I want to put on my truck, and I'd like to buy the bolts this week. what size/length/grade should I use?

thanks YT!

always use the strongest grade bolts you can buy. I would suggest grade 8 bolts.

As for size, im not 100% sure but 1/2" bolts should do the trick.

ok, got the hitch on, works great, though my truck didn't pull the MR2 so well haha.

just for reference, in case someone would be looking for this information, I used the following hardware:

(2) 1/2" x 3 1/2" Bolts
(4) 1/2" x 1 1/2" Bolts
(6) 1/2" Nuts
(12) 1/2" Flat Washers

every bolt was just the right size, and I am really pleased with how everything worked out.
