I returned the crappy grade 4 bolts to Lowe's. Mama never knew crap about nothin' anyway... They (the grade 8 bolts) are dark and scary looking, almost like you can hear them whisper when you hold them up to your ear, "I'm strong. I once killed a grade 4 bolt, just to watch it die..."

I'm not going to lie, they are intimidating. Well, a really cool update to come soon!! Then I'll do a cost breakdown, so anyone can do their own adapter plate/coupler for 'x' dollars in house, where 'x' is I have no idea, I haven't added it up yet, so back off!!!! Fine, I'll add it up right now:

2 steel plates: $15
aluminum Rod: $22 (or $23, I forgot, gall dern ripoff)
2 L-095 Lovejoys and spider: $25
Pile of Grade 8 (aaaahh!) bolts: $25
Nugget from Car: $0.00 since you already have the car!!! You stupid idiot!
3 or 4 welding rods: $0.20 or so. (to weld the nugget)
Having a grade 8 bolt ready to attack at your command: PRICELESS

Total cost: $88.20 + infinity

Not bad. Now the only question is, will that piece of crap work for longer than 10 seconds?
