Default Shock Bolts

I know this question has been asked before. But I looked all over and could not find any answers that I was looking for. So here it is.

I have noticed a rattle from the bolts on all four lower shocks. I remember reading somewhere that the size of the bolts were incorrect coming out of the factory. Does anyone know and could possibly tell me the correct diameter and length of the lower shock bolts in the front and rear. That actually fits and is not smaller than the correct opening.

I want to say 1/2-20 thrd X 3" Grade 8 bolts. I used the same grade washers and lock nuts. Picked them up at the local hardware store.

Is there any movement in the saddle of the shock?
