    Lower rear shock mounting bolt for an e36?

    Anyone have a spare one lying around? Or can I find an equivalent at Lowes?

    Call a BMW dealership and get the size then go to Lowes or Home Depot.

    I wouldn't trust a hardware store bolt with that, get the right part from a dealership.

    You need to make sure that it's the correct bolt. If it's not and that bolt shears off you're going to be in a world of hurt. They're extremely hard, strong bolts and it's easy to get the wrong one. They're cheaper than $5 from the dealer too.
