Golf,
You are correct. However, in this case, the bolt that was removed was Grade 8 (based on markings on the bolt head). I was unable to get Grade 8 bolts at Lowes, so I opted for a Grade 5.
Here's the SAE specifications for the bolts -
Bolt Tensile Strength (Breaking Strength -lbs)
BoltDia(in) Grade 2 Grade 5 Grade 8 (coarse thread)
1/4 2350 3800 4750
