Help lost a bolt.
I have an 89 GTA 350. A bolt the bolts the A/C bracket to the passenger side head fell out and the hole thing is vibrating like crazy. I was wondering what bolt I need to replace it. It is the bolt directly below the A/C Compressor like if you look at the compressor it is at 6 o'clock right below it.
I think it is a m12. But I couldnt find one to fit. ANy help would be awesome. Either you could point me to somewhere i could buy the whole set. Or maybe let me know what the tread pattern and length of the bolt I need.
Thanks
Jason

its probably 1/2" or something like that, lets say its imperial, what size does it look like you need?(diameter and length)

if you think its metric but dont know, buy 2 bolts, one in metric and one in imperial. that way you will know for sure if its metric or imperial, but i would guess it to be imperial. what are the other bolts like? are they metric or imperial?

If it actually threads into the head it should be a 3/8" X 16 thread pattern. You can find the length you need by straightening a wire coathanger and checking the depth of the hole. Get a bolt slightly shorter than the hole is deep so you don't bottom the bolt out in the head.
