I am needing to replace some CV bolts for a larger axle. They are M8 with 1.25 thread (12.9) and 56MM top to bottom. Are bolts relatively the same if they are the right size and strength? Suggestions on where to buy?

The CV bolts are hardened, and not all that expensive.
You can find bolts for less but there is engineering that has went into the correct hardness. You may save a few bucks but personally I'd just buy them from one of the usual vendors, as you know the spec is correct.
