From memory the bolts are 8mm and there are 4 of them. The 6 studs I can't help ya with as it is heaps easier to just buy a kit from the business section

any machinist worth his weight in swarf should be able to work it out, if not buy a kit from either BYE products or Twinstick Offroad available in the business directory section.

Get some 14mm hex bar, machine it down and tap an M8 thread into it.

I'm pretty sure Mr Just_Cruizin has a test certificate for his bolts from a NATA approved testing authority... you won't get that for homemade bolts...

I have already worked out my measurements. My question was what are the dimensions of the ones ypur running. If its nothing but smart arse comments and nob heads that wanna throw there two cents in then i guess ill go with my own measurements. Thanks to the people who genuinely tried steering in the right direction.
Gotta love forums,you get people from every breed....

You can't expect people to give away details of a product they've done a ton of research and had testing approvals done to make a safe product that they can sell as a business.

You expect them to just hand over their hard work to someone they don't know, for nothing. Not likely mate.

I'm sure if you're a competent machinist you can work it out, ensure its done to appropriate engineering standards and you should be ok. Of course tested certified products are a plus
