As the Buyers Products Straight Tongue Trailer Coupler # 3370091560 has 3 holes per side on the part that will bolt to the tongue of the trailer, you will want to use 3 bolts per side, so 6 total. This is kind of a standard, so when there are 2 holes you go 2 per side, and 3 holes, you go 3 per side. The mounting holes are 1/2" and you will want to make sure you are using at least grade 5 bolts. This will give you plenty of strength.
