I believe I used 5/8. When I did my I went and bought a foot of 5/8 and 3/4 just to try it. It was awhile back. As I remember I bougt 55ft.

Yeah, 5/8". use some dawn dish soap to lube it up. I used the round knob on the end of a large craftsman screwdriver handle to open her up just ahead of the new rope. Leave some extra at both ends and let the rope shrink up before cutting it off.
