On my prev Stroker I used 5/8 grade bolts and nuts. On my current Stroker I used 9/16 grade 8 bolts and nuts. I haven't experienced and stretch with either.
9/16 grade 8 on mine.
Ok doky, kurt said 9/16 fine thread, thats what it will be, thanks

I think they are 4" bolts but it's been a long time since I measured them. Some one else should chime in that is more familiar with what they use like CB marine, Kurt, Wayne, Paul and I'm sure others. If I can find a stock bolt I will measure it.
Thanks

For my particular setup, this is what I used. I strongly encourage you to measure your setup before buying / ordering. Too many variables for a 1 size fits all approach
Motor and Jackplate bolts:
Motor>static jackplate top = 3"
Motor>static jackplate bottom =2.5"
Top static>hydro jackplate = 2.5"
Bottom static>hydro jackplate = 2"
Transom>hydro jackplate = 4"
1.5" flat washers =
1.17" flat washers =
All bolts, nuts and washers Fastenal grade 9 ecoguard coating, torque = 130' pounds
Sure the length will be close, especially on plate to engine

When redrilling do your boat a favor remove the jackplate don't just try to redrill move it out of the way so you can get the holes right and use marine silicone to seal
