i love how the battery labor is less than the belt... and the belt takes all of 1 minute to swap out!

Ok, so I did what I should have done from the beginning. I emailed stangsuspension.com and was told that the LCA's are a direct swap.

Now where do I get replacement hardware (bolts, nuts) and how do I know what size to use?

the control arms will come with bushings installed in them already and you just use your stock bolts again.
