I'm sorry, I should've been more specific about the spec.s. They're 3/8-16 but what are the lengths and grade? Thanks

There are four bolts, 3/8"-16, Grade 5, 30 ft-lbs., use thread sealer on them.

check first
I always double check what length I need by measuring the depth with a skewer stick, remembering to include bracket/washer thicknesses.
Assures max thread engagement without risk of bottoming out.
