Rear Suspension Bolt

[Ninharu]

So I was driving into my crescent today and my rear drivers side smashed to the ground. Its night time so I couldn't see what happened, but i went home and grabbed a light saw that the tire was jammed up in to the wheel well. At first i thought the shock went through the tower from the sound it made. I jacked the car up and saw that my shock was no longer attached to the mount and the bolt was missing. Guess it came lose somehow and over the course of driving around for a year since i replaced my shocks it finally fell out. Could have been really messy if i was actually going faster than 10km/h.

Needless to say I searched for the bolt but no luck, so my question is does any one know the size/length/tread pitch for this thing. Is there a part number i could just order from. I know it has a washer mounted to the bolt as well.

Any help would be appreciated.

Just get it from the dealer.

I would support the car and remove the missing hardware from the opposite side. The dealer doesn't always give you the right thing, trust me! That way you know for sure you are buying the right hardware.

thanks guys, thats what i did, i brought the other bolt in and matched it up. Its still very strange that it happened in the first place. It has been 2 years since the suspension in the back was replaced and its a good thing that i wasn't driving very fast.

loctite is good insurance to keep this from happening again . It keeps everything in place on my four wheeler and I beat the piss out of that thing.
