Trailer Mounted MEPs

Does anyone know the bolt size for the trailer mounted MEP units? I had dismounted one previously... and can't seem to find where I squirreled them away to. I definitely see them called out in the TM 9-6115-659-13&P, but not unique identifier info.

Thanks for your help.

I have some I can send you, do you need 4? I am away from the shop today so I can't get to them right now to send you the size.

I have (2) LTT-TQG trailers coming in this week, and need to put (1) 803A on one for a pickup next weekend (the other will be used down the line). I appreciate the offer Bob. If you just want to measure them, that will help just as much (Can have some arrive next business day by MSC/Fastenal, etc). I assume they are Grade 5 minimum.
