Default Brace bolt size?

I tried searching.

I need to get some grade 8 bolt's for my Spohn tunnel mount TA cross brace. I removed the stamped steel cross brace long ago so I have no bolts to compare the new ones too. Anyone know the thread pitch off hand?

I ran into the same problem. It's a pretty common pitch if I remember correctly. I had some leftover bolts from something that worked fine.

I know that doesn't help you much but eh...it's a common pitch.

I figured it out. It's a M8 1.25 if IIRC.
I needed ones at least 30mm long to have good thread engagement through my cross brace and my 3-point SFC's and using both a lock washer and a flat washer.
