I actually didn't use any bolts putting it back together. I welded the buckets to my frame. I wouldn't suggest that unless you really trust your welding though.
If you look at this picture, you can see where I welded it all along the edges, and welded around the bolt holes. (excuse the crappy looking tubing, I ripped it with a dirty torch tip)

Ok, I see now. I was planning on just dropping it down to the lower holes and making a bracket for support. After thinking more about it and looking at it, it will drop it down about 4". I would end up having to buy more parts than I wanted and would probably be cheaper to just buy a lift.
