Hitch installation hardware

Hey all,
I am transferring the class 3 hitch from my 2006 ranger to my 2004 ranger. I took the hitch off the 06 to get the bumper off to do some body work due to rust. I did not get it all back together before I left for college. I was home last weekend and hiped to get the hitch swapped over only to discover the garagw gremlins had made off with some of the nuts and bolts.
My question is does anyone have any recommendations for what grade of hardware i could look for locally (hardware store, lowes, auto parts store etc.) I want to avoid spending 35 bucks on a whole new hardware set for just 2 bolts and nuts. Thanks guys.

Grade 5 maybe. Do a web search for the hitch, look for install instructions. They sometimes list bolt sizes and strengths.

Trailer hitch receiver to frame bolts should be SAE Grade 8 always. Fine thread preferred if available.
