That post below was lifted from the link mentioned previously. It looks like a post I made over at the old Oldspower.com years ago. Back in those days it was tough to beat gmpartsdirect.com for prices and I always referenced them as having the best prices around for comparison to list prices. Those same bolts now list for $11.35 each ($6.99 each from gmpartsdirect.com before their profit charges). The lock nuts are now $2.25 each list price. But both are still available from GM.

There's no "GM kit" for all the bolts that GM sells, unfortunately. I got the complete set all over the frame, but I did it all by opening up the parts book and sifting through each part number and having the dealership order what I needed. Many were 5 packs or 10 packs of stuff that a car only needed a few of, but what the hell. Maybe here's some info that may help more.

Front Lower control arm bolts (2 needed) (front side) is GM p/n 11502603 still available from GM. This also works for the rear UCA and LCA bolts (8 total in the rear needed). Nuts for these bolts are 11516073 like are in the quote below. The front lower control arm bolts for the rear side are 11500952 but have been discontinued. They're 15 mm longer than the front bolts. Size is M12 x 1.75 x 110 mm.

Rear sway bar bolts/nuts are 11508039 (discontinued) sized M10 x 1.5 x 65 (10.9) and the nut is 11502812 (discontinued but replaced with 11517996 which is still a good number). Size M10 x 1.5.

Upper front A-arm bushing nuts are 11500756, but this number has been superseded by....wait for it..... 11516073, just like the other control arm bolts. They're shown as M12 x 1.75.

Here ya go, this should be the GM part number: 461854

List price is $8.91 each
Through GM Parts Direct they are $5.23.

And matching lock nuts, pack of 10: 11516073

List price is $1.46 each
Through GM parts Direct they are $0.85 each ($8.50 for the whole pack)
