     Welcome to the site, this might take some time for the right person to see this thread that has that information laying around.
#1: The easiest and most obvious solution to any problem is 99% of the time correct.
#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.

i had to get some for a truck a while back. i THINK they were 1/2" bolts coarse thread of course(not sure of thread pitch) i accually have a 3" body lift under my tool box at work. if you would like i can measure the bolt lengths tomorrow, i could compare them to some stock cab bolts i have and it should give you an idea i would think, I.E. stock cab bolt is 3 1/4" shorter than the 3" body lift bolt. subtract 3 1/4" from the bolt lengths i have in my kit. Unless of course someone comes along and can tel you the correct size for sure :)

Sorry , They are standard thread, NC 1/2 x 3 1/2, with about 2 1/2 inches of thread.
