Default How to bolt crossmember to body stands?

Are the four holes in the rear crossmember threaded for bolts to attach to the two body stands on my 1929 Coupe? I haven't gotten close enough to inspect those holes that open to the inside of the crossmember. What bolts are supposed to go there?

no they are just holes in the body cross member. they take bolts, nuts and lock washers.
i think they are 5/16x3/4 NF

Thanks! I just lifted the body up in the air on my chain hoist and now see how it works. I somehow had the idea that the holes opened inside the crossmember instead of at the back edge. Simple. When it was sitting on the floor of my garage, I couldn't see enough.
