Picture Request

[ArkhamZ]

Long story short: short on time with deployment schedule and life and need a bit of help. 97' stock suspension. Rear lower shock hardware is rusted and so deteriorated that I can not see how it is assembled. Just looks like califlower.

Checked FSM, YouTube, and a million Google images (including this site) and can not find a closeup shot from underneath. Need a good upclose to see the details or a good link if there is one I missed somehow. I already know I have to cut the bolt out but it looks like it goes through two pieces then a nut??? Expecting to have to fabricate a fix (which sucks because I don't have welding equipment). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It threads into a welded tube/nut in the mount. This is the hardware you need:

Thank you for your service and sacrifice. Joey knows parts.

Thanks for the quick reply! Funny you sent that link I was using that as a reference for the bolt which lead to my confusion (it's also sitting in the cart waiting to get purchased)....it's too short to go all the way across to the other side of the "y" on the mount. So that piece going from the back of the shock mount all the way across is all a tube/nut.....the rusty califlower that is mine looks like a bolt going all the way through with a nut on the other end.....and thank you Comet!
