Drivetrain help needed- hardware

Hello

So we are looking into purchasing the 2014 drive in a day chassis from Vex, and want to use the H drive configuration, but we do not know what hardware we need. It says the hardware is not included, so can anyone help us out and show us what we need to get and where to get it?

here is the link to the website:

Thanks

The drive in a day page has a bill of material listed next to the h drive configuration.

Watching the video, it looks like they are using #10 bolts (with possibly 32 threads/inch). Personally I would be hesitant to to use #10 bolts for axles. For the structure I'm more of less fine with them. I'm worried they would be able to handle the load that traditional comes with FRC games. If you can outfit them to work with 1/4" bolts, I would recommend that.
