Does anyone know for sure what the diameter and thread size is for these two bolts?

These are the inside bolts.

There are at least two sizes... I know nothing beyond that, but on the underside of one of my rear crossbars, there is a note about "newer style thread depth" and two different sized bolts came out from different boats.... what year is it?

Ditto with Doty. Ha Ha. Just happen to have my 1989 apart and the front are 3/8-16 3.75, the rear are 3/8-16 2.50. Make sure you use some sort of anti-seize anti-gauling goop when re-installing. Jim.
