Need bolt size front track bar 99 TJ

[99greenTJ]

Our grandson 1999 TJ has lost the bolt to the track bar. I'm not where I can see or measure it. Does anyone know the length and size of this bolt?
The bar appears aftermarket, It seems larger in diameter, should not effect the bolt size?
Bolts on the front right side of steering area.
Thanks very much

Axle side is M10x1.5x70 10.9 grade I believe. Black Magic Brakes makes a MUCH better one. The other side I don't know.

Some of the Currie and aftermarket track bars use a 1/2" bolt.

Pictures might help.

I carry a couple of spares.

M10 x 1.75 x 70 mm

I just threw one in my '02 yesterday, replaced the front track bar, stock, no lift.

This is the axle/passenger side, as the other side is a ball joint into the frame on the driver's side.

FYI, I didn't use a flag nut. There's an access hole on the side that I used a flare wrench to hold onto the nut with as I torqued it down.

I'm sorry not sure. It's bolt in area is o the front lower side. Maybe just under the dampener shock. Not there to see yet

Bolt in jeep drivable again.
I need to start shopping for front end steering components. Some have been replaced before such as the track bar.
Questions of course.
Why is our track bar not straight?
The bar is newer than the 220k miles the jeep show. The ball joint on on end of the track bar needs to be replaced.
Is the ball joint in the track bar adjustment stock piece?
I see pics on line with the track bar is bolted in on both ends? These are straight bars.
I have removed items used for lifting the body after we got the jeep. Items at springs and maybe something at transmission?

I want to get a bolts for the track bar. We get lucky and found a rando bolt to use this morning. It was usable but would like a bolt and nut like this on.
