Grade five is less brittle. Hey, the rivets are not all that hard, you can drill them.
I just re-installed a crossmember in my Dodge. Rivet holes were all undersized, like .590 ijstead of 5/8". So drilling 'on assembly' to 5/8 left a snug fit for the 5/8 bolts.
Minor milestone: I actually put something back on!
