I need the bolt to fasten this into my car it's for the rear suspension but I can't seem to find it I call the dealership auto parts and nothing. I bought the coil overs used payed some were to install it and apparently I've been driving with my stock suspension on with 1 bolt fastened. Which I don't believe but whatever I'm looking for a replacement bolt because this idiot couldn't call me and tell me the bolt was missing until I got there. It's the screw for the rear shock that you see there

Not quite sure which bolt your referring to, but if you can figure out the OEM part number from this website, then you can order it from here or somewhere else:

The studs should be "welded" into the wheel well already for you. They do not come "pressed" onto the upper shock mount like the fronts What you will need are two nuts for each side to screw onto the studs in the upper wheel well. I think they are 10mm but not sure what thread, probably a standard size though

12mm wrench , but the size is either 6x1.0 or 8x1.0 if we are talking about the upper mounting point.

Op, it's really hard to follow what you need. Please spend 5 seconds on Google and learn what the difference is between a nut, bolt and screw. I doubt you are dealing with a screw. Then look at the posted images, you could at least mention a number that would be closest to the part you are working with

Its like working in IT and dealing with the general public.


OP...the rear uses welded in studs. The studs are attached to the body. Having BC coils makes no difference. You just need the proper nut.

Now..if they guy installing them sheared the stud...you may need to do a bit more work. Drill out the old stud and put a new one in from the top..not going to be fun.
