Quick question - lug bolt for wheel/brake drum 52 pan FL

52 pan FL - are the 5 lug bolts for the front and rear wheels identical? A few sights stipulate rear fitment, while others state front and rear fitment. Trying to buy (10) front and rear in advance.

All factory lug bolts were the same on original fitment, front and rear on interchangeable wheels and 45 rear. There was an oversize one available from H-D for stripped holes. Stock are 3/8-20 thread, not the 3/8-24 I stated previously. All are 7/16 socket head(Allen).

I believe the lug bolts use an obsolete thread, 3/8-20. The oversize bolts are a standard fine thread, 7/16-20.

Larry is correct on the thread size.
