Dude, any size bolt that will fit through the hole in your shock. I went to lowes and just picked up grade 8 bolts and the nuts and washers for em. Was a peice of cake... although i would suggest, if you have access to and air compressor, get an air-chisel. My 88 was horrible, and using a chisel and hammer wasn't working at all. The air chisel knocked out the weld nuts extremely easy. I was honestly shocked. The bolts just need to fit in your shock, as the hole where the weld nut was will be slightly bigger.
