Default K-member Hardware Size/Length

Does anyone know the lengths of the K-member bolts? I'm fairly certain they are M12x1.75, I need to pick up some hardware on the way home from work today, and left the bolts at home. Thanks!

This is incorrect. Front are around 90mm and rear 30mm

^^^if youre referring to stock bolts you can't account that a portion of them does not actually contain threads. As these types of bolts are not readily available, he may be quoting threaded length only. Either would be correct as there is plenty of wiggle room in length for k member bolts. Since you are stabbing into a blind hole with a floating "nut plate" the stockers are turned down to lessen the chance of cross-threading and overall easier installation.

No I am not accounting for the "bull nose". I'll snap some pics with measurements next time I'm out tinkering on the car.
