Hex head...

The bolt head is 14 mm and the thread is about 1/4" thick so I would guess the bolts threads are M6 x 18mm L.

I am pretty sure they are 13mm.

I was thinking about replacing the factory bolts with stainless steel socket head cap screws.
It looks nice!Just need the bolt size.

I went outside and pulled one out of my spare axle, double checked the bolt size for you with a dial caliper and you still assume, the only thing i didn't state was the thread type
