When I did my BL, I just measured the bolts that came from factory, and got some HT bolts that are 2 inches longer, flat washers and nyloc nuts.
I think from memory, the bolts, washers and nuts came to around 90bucks from a bolt supplier.
Hope this helps mate.

easiest thing i found when i did mine was to take one out then drive to the bolt shop (i dont reccomend this drive another car) and say you want however many you need longer by the size of lift. that way the bolt shop sorts out the length and you cant stuff it up.
