Crossmember tube sizes

Has anyone got the sizes for the tubes and bolts needed to convert the front crossmember to bolt through the chassis rails. Im not near the car so cant measure.
Cheers

    The tube needs to be about 80mm long, so get 100 to be safe (each), and use a 12mm bolt (x 125mm). Make sure the tube has a decent wall thickness.
