companies that sell the spacers sell a bolt kit along with it to accomodate the extra length.

ya you should have got a bolt kit too....but none the less my lowes had 5/16 x 7 which is stock...with your 1" spacer you will need 5/16 x 8 they had those too...dont remeber the length of the smaller outside ones just bring one and get a inch longer....
