10mm, 1.5 pitch by 100 or 150 mm long depending on how long the lugs on your particular stand
M10 x 1.50 threaded bolt I believe. I get mine from NAPA and I *think* they are 55mm in length
10x40x1.25 metric


those are the two bolt specs i found by searching when i needed my own set. i picked them up from home depot.

10M x 1.5 is the right size, I found mine in a box of old nuts and bolts that I had left over from some Vette dismantling...found an auction on ebay for misc hardware and got a good buy on it. This can of nuts and bolts has saved me more than one trip to GM or the parts store!
