Hi Everyone,

So, sometime in my Blazer's sordid past she was involved in a low-speed fender-bender. The accident sheared the bolt that attached the bumper to to the bumper mounting bracket on the driver's side. That bolt (or its remains) have since been lost to the sands of time.

I've looked in Haynes and in AllData, but I can't find anything specific on this bolt. I want to remount the bumper and I'm going to need to mail-order the bolt.

Does anybody have any ideas on what this thing is?

Here's a few pics of the empty bolt hole and of the matching bolt on the passenger side.

It's a metric bolt, grade 8.8. Probably fine thread. A good hardware store, auto parts store, Home Depot, Lowes...should have one.
