front shocks

getting ready to install new shocks on 96 f150. problem is both front lower shock bolts are broken need to be replaced. what size bolts are theses. have two bolts that the parts store gave me with the shocks it fits through the bracket on frame but nut through the shock.

where do you recomend get the bolts from ford dealer or somewhere else. for the time being i have bolt that is just sightly too small a little wiggle ,atleast til i get the new ones

i always have the family van to drive also

Not sure if they are the same, but I bought some Grade-8 bolts that measured 1/2" x 2-1/2" (13 TPI) for the lowere shock mounts in my 77 F150.
