Default Skid plate bolts

Okay I've researched it but all I found was 8x1.25. The bolts I need are all 4 bolts for the front skid plate (the one that has H3 on it). I don't have any hardware at all for it. And then I need the bolts for the engine oil pan skid plate as well. Again I don't have any hardware for this one either.

Now on the front skid plate it looks like it attaches to the plastic somehow, is this correct? Pictures and sizes would be awesome. I'm supposed to be going off roading this Sunday on some decently aggressive rock trails so I really need to get these skids attached.

first of all I would suggest not going if you don't have the full UCP set up. this set goes all the back to the transfer case. trust me I do alot of wheeling on rocks and other places where you can not see what is underneath the vehicle.

I appreciate your concern. I have all of the skid plates installed already EXCEPT for the two mentioned above. I have done this trail previously in my jeep so I am familiar with it. I'm not a rookie when it comes to rocks and I do not plan on going if I cannot get the other two plates mounted which is why I am on this forum asking for the sizes of these bolts. I have found them at my local dealer but the dealer cannot get them until next week. My local club is going out this Sunday and I would like to join them. So if anyone can help with sizes I would appreciate it.

From what I've been able to find the pitch is 1.25. So the size for the front skid is 8x1.25 from what I can find from research. Not sure what length to use though but so far this forum has not been much help. Full of sarcastic people.
