Default Steering Box Screws?

Can anyone tell me what is the correct size and thread for the steering box screws. 2 of the 3 snapped on removal and in the UK its hard to get US thread screws.

Good luck!

Most of the listings I've seen put those screws at 7/16"-14x4.000", you may use hex head, flange head, or use a socket head with a washer to spread the load (this will give you some options.)

But yeah, finding SAE screws in ISO-land is going to prove difficult...
