V50 rear suspension bolts

[scimitarmatt]

Afternoon all. I’m about to replace the rear suspension shock adsorbents and top mounts on my 2006 V50 but wanted to source replacement bolts in case any knacker when removed

Does anyone have the sizes or a link to a supplier please?

Thanks Matt

I have replaced both of rear shock absorbers & the bump stop, the bolts were as new and top mounts as well, except kind of chalk, white powder inside and outside of the top mount, I have not a clue what is that. I used threading-locking fluid for all three bolts.
With this occasion I checked the control arms, there is some corrosion, not much, this made me change one of them with TRW one, interestingly the original one looks like new, the rubber is in perfect state. What is original is original.

I just had one of these mounts shear off. It's an aluminium alloy casting and chalky deposits are corrosion from it. Just spent the day trying to get the bottom bolt of the strut but it is solid, think I may have to cut it off and try to work the bolt shaft with a blow torch before the storm hits tomorrow doubt I can get a replacement bolt before Monday

What I can't find is the part number for the 15mm bolt that mounts the shock absorber at the bottom it seems to be ipossible to buy.
