Maybe try NAPA auto parts or someplace like that.

Don't forget to put the red locktite (271) on the bolt too!

IIRC, it's a metric bolt. I don't remember the size, but one of the black oxide hex head bolts I found at the local Ace hardware fit nicely.

The Home Depot by my place has a good selection of metric stuff in plastic drawers.

Send an email to JKS. I had the disconnect pin come out while wheelin and lost it. They sent me a new one for free within a week. They have great customer service.

Same thing happened to mine. Found a bolt at a local hardware store and added the locktite. Haven't had a problem since.
