I'm not good with matching bolt sizes, something with my autism; last time I relied on the parts store goon to match up something as simple as a lugnut I screwed up a wheel stud. That why I was asking the people who actually know what they are talking about

You can test it at the parts store before you leave.

One thing the thing I thought was a drill bit is actually the tool to cut new threads .
