the factory service manual says 12x1.25mm, or it could be 125mm, its kinda hard to tell really, but a 125mm bolt would be 5" long and that seems just a touch too long for that particular spot, so is that the pitch? and maybe 46 is the length? 46mm seems about right for lenth cause thats just under 2" and the mount isnt all that wide

I have two old ones right here, and no way to measure. :mfrown:
You're welcome to them, but if you're far it's not worth the trip. zip 12564

Bought two awhile ago in anticipation of a suspension overhaul...figured that if I had two new ones, I wouldn care about any damage done removing the stock ones. I hear they are a bitch. Any ways...hondaautomotiveparts.com for $5.45 a piece. The invoice lists them as 12x68 (68=2.677 which seems to be about right with an inch tape measure). 1.25 that is listed in the manual refers to the thread pitch. There are coarse thread and fine thread and this number refers to that. It tells you how many threads are within a set distance as the 12 refers to the diameter.
