Help someone, the bolt which is in place to hold the torsion bar has fallen out, the rear near side one. Can someone tell me the size of the bolt I need so I can go to a hard wear store and but a new bolt because the rattling sound is back I need to stop it ASAP!

Cheers

as i had said. get one direct for citroen, as the correct thread/bolt is cheaper than a monged torsion bar

its M8 x 1.25

i would be worried if your torsion bar is rattling about. even if the bolt has come out it wont rattle. are you sure is the torsion bars?? not the ARB end plate?
same size thread anyway.

Well I was reading something yesterday about this ARB plate. All I know is when I had the car lowered the noise started untill i re did the bolts. the noise started again and I spotted the near side bolt had gone. once I get the new bolt and if the noise aint gone I am gonna start to shit myself.
