I use a wire welder to repair the holes that are worn out from bolts being loose.

If the wear is concentric. on the bolt hole, they could be reamed out ant a bushing made to bring it back to size. Press fit the bushings about .002" so they stay put. Jim

going to try welding do you know bolt pattern looks like 19 3/4 center of hole also do the new bolts need to be square? thanks

Using grade 8 is a good idea with heavy nuts. The only issue with Hex bolts is the need to hold them on the opposite side. Not an issue in general, but since it is not a show tractor it matters little. Jim
