Hello Clayton.
The mounting hardware that you need for the Reese Sidewinder like # RP77FR:
-(8) 5/8-11x2 Grade 8 Bolts
-(8) 5/8-11 Grade 8 Nuts
-(8) 5/8 HD Flat Washers
-(8) 5/8 Conical Lock Washers
The # GY86FR has most of the correct hardware, but I have to recommend that you use Conical Lock Washers (which are not included in the # GY86FR) for installing the Reese Sidewinder as it states in their instructions. I have included a copy of the instructions where you will see on page 9 what mounting hardware needs to be used for installation.

Hey Clayton, how did things go with the hardware for your Reese Sidewinder hitch? Did the Gen-Y bolt kit and the conical lock washers give you the setup you needed? Your update could make it easier for others working on the same hitch.
