I'm trying to figure out what sizes to purchase.

-Masonry bit for 20v hammer drill.
-Expansion sleeve/anchor
-Lag Eyebolt

Am I missing anything?

My main issue is not knowing if the sizes correlate accurately.

Do I need to get a 3/8 drill bit, a 3/8 x (xx) Anchor and a 3/8 x (xx) Lag Bolt?

It has been years since I used Redhead anchors. But full specs should be online. They come in a variety of sizes and a couple out several hundred had an issue anchoring.

Another option is to tapcon a piece of wood (2x4 or 2x6) to the ceiling then you can attach whatever type of lag bolt eye hook you want. Tapcons are blue anchor screws in the hardware isle at HD or Lowe’s. They come in kits with drill bits. You should be able to get something like 1/4x 3” should be plenty to secure a board.
