Default What size socket do I need?

I am trying to replace the front bumper on my 1997 Dodge Ram 1500. I've gotten all the front bolts off (those are 11/16th bolts), but the 11/16th is slightly too small for the bolts at the end of the long arms (bumper braces) that go from the bumper to the frame. What size socket do I need to take those off (at the end that attaches to the frame)? I've looked everywhere and can't find that info. I'm going to have to go buy that size is why I need to know. Can't afford a set of sockets/wrenches. I hope somebody here knows. Not sure if I am doing this right so if you don't get an acknowledgement from me after answering, please email me at artistic_cowboy30@yahoo.com

Thanks bud. I noticed the 11/16 was kinda snug on the ones that did work lol, so that may have been my problem all along. I appreciate it.
