I have 40 hours on my L4600 HST. Because I'm mostly a one man operation I got a Rankin Quick Hitch from the dealer that sold me my Kubota. It installed easily but after 18 hours of use the top bolt for the upper hook sheared off. It came with two bolts and the remaining one was half way sheared. I picked up some new bolts that are grade 8. Will I need a stronger set of bolts? I'm pulling a 72 in wide Land Pride mower...and a 72 inch wide LP road grader. I have plans for a 12 in auger next.

I think the grade 8 should do.
