I assume you mean the bolt that goes through the bushing on the upper control arm and into the front torsion bar => For something like that I would just go and buy the bolt at the dealer - it is a kind of mission critical bit.

I have no way of telling you the grade or size of the bolt or the pitch of the thread at the moment.
