Front driveshaft thread pitch

Hey guys, when I was doing some tranny work I lost 2 of the 4 bolts that hold the front drive shaft to the transfer case. I went ahead and put it back together with the remaining 2 (I just won't use 4x4 until I replace them), but forgot to check the diameter and thread pitch. Anybody know or have a few handy to find out for me please?

You should be able to get a strap and bolt set at any local parts store.

The bolts seem to be standard. A number of the bolts on our American made transmissions and transfer cases are standard threads.

I just pulled one off and took it to the parts house. It is 7/16-14 x 1.25".
