Roger:

Also, if it is a new production M&H it has an odd length!  I had to order
two from "Fastenal" to replace some that some movers lost.  I think they
were 2-3/4" long.  No one around here had them in stock.

Roger,

Sorry, I was thinking of the wrench size. Oops!

Gary,
Take the following and you will be almost certain to have the correct bolt:

3/8" x 16
1/2" x 20
1/2" x 13
Mark,
I believe you are in error.  In all my research, I haven't come across a 
3/4" diameter bolt for a lyre. It's incredibly big. Did you mean 1/2"?
