Does anyone know (or be kind enough to measure) the dia of the bolt that secures the rear "on-road" towing eye to the chassis?

The front ones I've removed to fit bull bars are M10x1.5x115. I would think the rears are the same.

Yep,the rear bolts on mine are the same size, and if replacing, they need to be grade 8.8 or higher.

Grade 8 or class 8.8? Class 8.8 is close to grade 5.

....I should have called it "Class 8.8".
As you note, Metric Class 8.8 is roughly equivalent to SAE Grade 5.
But you would also have known that I was referring to the metric version with the .8 reference.
