Went over a bump yesterday and then heard some rattling, got home and turns out the rear shock mount broke and one of the bolts sheared off.
I've ordered new mounts and figured this was a good time to replace the shocks and struts, plus some Eibach springs.
Has anyone replaced the bolt for this? I took out all the interior bits to get a look at the bolt, and it is just a flat-topped stud. Where do you get a replacement or do I just use a regular bolt? If so, what pitch and length?
I've got an air hammer, so hopefully, that will pop the old bolt out.
I found this thread, but don't want to use JB Weld:
