    Are you talking about the bolt that goes through the shock "eye" to hold it in place? If so, you just need to replace the bolt. Should be able to get a replacement at any auto parts store.

    No, the lower shock mount, the one in the bracket attached to the rear axle housing, its not as simple as replacing a bolt like the top one is!

    I can't remember if there is enough room behind that bracket to get a bolt through there.

    It's too cold for me to go outside and look. You may have to get a new stud pressed in there somehow -worst case will require cutting off that bracket and welding up a new one.
