Default Bmr driveshaft loop question

Hi, purchased a used one on parts classfied here, I discovered i don't have a cross member support or the bolts to use to install loop. My question: what are the correct size, length & thread size? So i can purchase at Home depot? I emailed BMR Tech support but got no reply. Thanks in advance.

M8-1.25. 25 or 30mm length.

Just goto Lowes and find a body bolt, which is a Grade 8.8 bolt/washer combo that is M8 (and it only comes in 1.25, which is the coarse thread and the correct one for the car) and is 30mm or 25mm long (can't remember). The larger washer is what you want for the DSL as it is elongated to allow for adjustment, but that means you need more washer than a standard M8 washer. I also wouldn't trust a fender washer there as I couldn't find any 8.8 or better washers.
