Missing Shock Bolt

[mgramann]

Does anyone know the dimensions of the upper rear shock bolt? Mine fell out this past weekend. Searches didn't produce any results. Weather being what it is-I'm trying to avoid removing the other one, or finding something "close"

Thanks!

Can you pull the one from the other side of the truck?

We've got some nasty weather scheduled to arrive when I am able to work on the truck. Not having a garage makes it especially fun-so I was just curious if anyone else had this happen and could save me some time.

It doesn't hurt to ask!

First you need to tell us what type of CUCV.

Second, looking at the TM 9-2320-289-20p parts manual, the upper bolt is part of the bracket on the pickups and part of the shock on the 1009s.

The 1009s nut size is 5/8"-18
and the 1008 nut size is 1/2"-13

Hope this helps

I can't believe I forgot-it's a 1009....which means I am missing part of the shock. I am thinking if I purchased a new shock, that "bolt" would slide out, and I could use it until I can replace the whole thing when it isn't sleeting...

Thanks for the TM manual number. I have now downloaded it for future reference.

EDIT-It appears that Dorman makes a universal shock bolt kit. That should do it!
