Well, the nut at the top is a M14 x 1.25 pitch. Now the bolts at the bottom... those are something huge, like M20, and they're hardened, so you're likely going to have to source those from the dealer. You can get the integrated locknuts for the tophats from any hardware supplier (McMaster, Rainbow, etc.) they'll even have them in those HELP! 2-packs at autoparts stores.

And for the sake of complete coverage, the bolts that hold the brake line brackets on are M6 x 1.0, 12mm long. The endlink nuts are M12 x 1.25.

Nice - thanks for the reply. I had to fix my front strut bar and they were only torqued to 30lbs - i put my strut bar back on and torqued them to 40lbs. the end.

So you just needed to know the size of the nuts that hold the top mount to the strut tower? Well I'll be.
