Get a set made up from a local bolt specialist, should only cost about £15-20 in hight grade steel.

A decent machine shop might be able to turn you some up on a lathe.

Standard bolts are M12x1.5 thread, 80mm long.

 

They are also high-tensile for safety reasons. 10.9-grade iirc, possibly higher.
