How many long ones and how many short ones do you need? I should have enough for both sides. If you do buy from McMastercar make sure to get the correct hardness grade. They are susupension bolts and very important.

Jay,
I don't know if you have "Lowes" up North, but that's where I bought a couple of them for my car.
I bought grade 8 hardware.
I used my bench grinder to modify the heads to match the factory bolts.

Hey Dave,

We certainly do have a majority of the American big box stores up here

I never even thought of using my bench grinder

interesting. Do you recommend coarse or fine thread?

Finest thread you can find, and nyloc nuts, if available.

Okay, so I picked up some Grade 8 nuts & bolts and will grind the heads a little to match them up to what was there. Thanks for all your help, photos to follow

PS if you are in the Ottawa area http://www.ottawafastenersupply.com/

The original bolts used by Fiat are grade 10.0.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo does this mean a replacement is in order?

Ground the bolts down

That lower left one looks like mine. The small ring on the splash shield appears intended to keep the heads from turning but it is too light to stop them and it just bends. Same thing happened on mine.
