    You can reuse the lower bolt. The upper bolts you can find at Home Depot or Lowes, anything will work.

    Reuse the stock lower bolt. Make sure to use the washer in the front of the shock. Hardware store is good enough for all the rest of the parts.

    You just need weekends off then we could go places... lol

    I will have to double check.

    I live an hour from it and I am not going... lol

    Ya like every one said get a bolt that fits in the hole and is long enough. I'd but grade 8 if you can. Anytime I replace bolts I get the best ones I can.

    There is a sway a way 8 min from my house you could call them and ask what the bolt specs are. 818 7009712

    I agree with what Zach was saying. Definitely try to get grade 8. You don't want any bolts snapping while on a trail

    That hardware is easily available. Just buy Grade 8. You normally re-use the OEM bottom bolt.

    I would net worry about the bottom bolt breaking, the mount to the axle has a greater chance of breaking than the bolt does. Unless you are @RedRunner87 and can somehow cross thread part of a bolt so that it tightens and does not loosen.

    He hand tightened the bolt. I loosened it and it would not come out. Somehow the top part of the bolt had stripped and the bottom didn't. The bolt would tighten but not loosen. Very odd. It is "captured" now.

    I take it that is a no on the original rocky mountain high. lol
