RE gives you grade 8 bolts to replace the stock UCA mounts bolts. The RE bolts are 1/2" and the stock ones are smaller. Do i need to drill out the stock holes to fit the 1/2" bolt or will my stock bolt be fine?

Are you speaking of having to drill out the stock mount to bolt in the drop brackets? If that is your question then yes you need to drill it out. I had to drill mine out and numerous others with the drop brackets had to do the same.
