Need bolt pattern information for Toyota forklift models 8FGU32 and 8FGCU32

I just need some simple information regarding two forklifts, model# 8FGU32 and 8FGCU32.

I just need to know about the holes for the 4 bolts that hold the load backrest onto the carriage... mainly hole diameter, and distance between holes.

I believe these are regular side-mount trucks, so there are two holes on each leg of the load backrest. I just need to know how to drill and place these holes for making a replacement load backrest.

Anybody around that has access to either information on these forklifts, or access to them?

42.5 cm on center between bolts. That's centered on the side of the fork carriage and the hole size is about 18mm.
