They are fine thread and 10.9, cant remember the size but m10 or 12 fine pitch, 10 I guess as 8 feels a bit smal. Local parts store had bunch as I remember buying longer ones for install phase.

All you need is right size and right strength, it can't be that hard.
Maybe couple washers too if they only have hex heads.
 
No local shops?

Take the lower control arm to shop or actually measure the thread, I cant remember if it is M10 or 12, also those are stainless and do not list the strength.
 
Thanks mate i already started on my carpark quiet cold but not much choice ,i will have to call fiat dealer tomorrow how much will cost new bolts
 
Seriously? I just measured the original bolt thread with calipers and went to one of local shops and asked for 10.9 bolt with the thread.

And you cant get A2 or A4 with the strength rating as those would be special mixtures, A4 is bad anyway as it is kind of soft and warps.

Fiatforum eper lists them as M10, but no pitch, but i remember them being fine thread so I guess they were M10x1.25 and eper is nice enough to give length as 30mm.
 
Yea i read somewhere its fine thread its m10x1.25 my friend can made high tensile bolts just need to find out if is class 8.8 or 10.9,i call 3 fiat dealers and cheapest set of bolts was £70 ant thats a lot i think
