there are two places on the west side you need to try. the first is "suburban ace hardware" in aloha, they have a MASSIVE hardware selection. they are on 185th and Tualitin Valley highway.
3470 SW 185th Ave Aloha, OR 97006-3129
(503) 649-5555
then if they don't have it, get back on hwy 26 and head a little further west, get off on the "shute road" exit and make a right onto evergreen rd, then a left on 25th after you pass the airport. about a half a mile down is a "Fastenall". i have heard they have everything, but as suburban ace alwasy has what i need i have never been in there.
Fastenal
1800 NE 25th Ave Hillsboro, OR 97124-5982
(503) 615-8616
you could also hit the junkyard and score some less rusty lass brittle ones. the dealership would also be able to get them for you i bet. _________________ 86' firebird (Junked in 2015). 88' GTA (sold in 2020).

Winks Hardware.
Parkrose Hardware.
Vancouver Bolt.
Tacoma Screw.
You're not going to find the same style bolt. They are a stepped bolt and not reproduced. Luckily the LCA bolts are unlike the Panhard bolt. Both holes are the same size. So get a set of bolts/nuts that have the same diameter as the fattest part of the stock bolt.
Or hit the Wrecking yard. |

I have the bolts that connect the LCA's to the axle, not the ones that tie the LCA's into the chassis.
if you don't mind the drive here you can have em both. _________________
