I did it with regular bolts; welded them in and ground the heads down. 
One of the trickier aspects is removing the limiting pins on each end 
(they also retain the ball bearings). I don't recall how I got them out, 
but I remember it was a bit of a hassle. I replaced them with roll pins. 
I also lost a ball bearing or two; easy enough to replace (5/16" IIRC).
