Try this website. I ordered square head bolts from them in several sizes. Luckily, they had a location close to home, but they're all over the country. Link

Most any place that deals in fasteners should be able to provide these. I provide a 3/4x5 1/2 and a 3/4x6 to a gold mine and have no problem getting them. These are a grade 5 bolt also.

They also make something you can put on bolts so they will come off easier. It's called anti-seize and comes in different size containers. It also comes in different kinds;siver, copper,and a few others. For general use I recommend the silver. A little bottle will last a long time and it keeps if you keep the lid tight. If you don't have anti-seize most pipe dope will also work.

There is a fellow who sells square bolts on E-bay under the agricultureal parts category I believe. He sells them in 5 pound lots and you get to choose the bolt size and length. You could find it using the search function on E-bay.

The nuts should be hex, the bolts should have square heads on them, this so they will not turn when you are tightening the nuts. It is very hard to find square headed nuts anymore so some people are using hex headed bolts in there place. Make for a real bad day if these hex bolts and nuts are rusted up, you almost have to cut them off with a torch or nut driver. There is a place that sells square headed bolts and someone listed them a little while back but forgot who there were. I may self look around the bone yards when I get to one or while ording a part from a bone yard ask them if the can ship me a few square headed bolts I may need. I have even welded points on the hex headed nuts to make square bolts & nuts.

I used hex on my B, replacing the badly rusted hex bolts that were already there. I'm not a stickler for originality. I had no problem getting the rusted nuts off. I just jammed a couple big screwdrivers in the bolt pocket to keep the bolt from turning. If they do rust so bad they won't come off, you can always drill out the center of the bolt and break them off with a hammer. (I don't own a torch)

Boy, I must have done something wrong... I just had the rear wheels off my "A", it was anything but fun. As for the nuts, mine were all hex, but I'm not sure if they were original. They came off like they were originals. I'm having a hard time finding sq head bolts for replacement.

Curious as to what size they are and what you had to pay for them.
