Do any of you know if the hardware used in a 1981 7000 is the same as a 1971 7000?

By hardware, I'm referring to the u-bracket, carriage bolts, nuts, etc that fasten the reel to the rod blank.

See attached pdfs.

Reason I'm asking: I bought a 1973 7000 reel and it's missing the hardware.  I found a hardware kit for sale online that is for a 1981 7000 (I know this because it comes with the original box) and I assume it's the same but I'd like to know before purchasing it.

Thanks in advance.
