Stabilizer bar conecting bolts x two

 Hi all 
         I'm after 2 stabilizing bar conecting bolts for the FC as mine have rusted with one having no thread at at all on on end.
   In the workshop manual they are called  " Stud - Front Stabilizer Spacer "  . They bolt the stabilizer bar to the lower control arm .
   FB and EK seem to be the same so that would work as well.
   I know that I can get after market generic bolts but I'm trying to keep the car as original as possible .
         Thanks Brad 
Id rather have a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal labotomy

The nearest easy replacement is the Rare Spares stabilizer bar stud and rubber kit (FE-HG).  The only difference is that the stabilizer bar stud is a smaller diameter forging, rather than the machined type that FE-FCs had.

If you want to go really really stock, you'd have to take your broken stud to a machine shop and get them to machine you a new pair out of the right size round bar.

Remember: if your Holden's not leaking oil, it doesn't have any.
