I was up at Glentarkie and managed to take off the top end of the driver's side sway bar link....this part:

 

jeep wrangler TJ (1999) #52087 771AB 2 LINK, Sway Eliminator

 

Does anyone know if can simply can a new bolt and thread it in from the top? The thread within the link seems to be okay. M8 bolts are too small and M10 bolts are too big though.

I had a swaybar link that broke on my TJ - passenger side, I simply replaced it with disconnects, that was almost 10yrs ago..  

 

No problems since

Sorry, I'm being dim!

 

It's disconnects that are on there at the moment, and its the top section of the disconnect that i've taken off.....the bit that attaches to the sway bar itself. Looking for a replacement of just that part, rather than the whole disconnect. Looks like it should just be a bolt and a bushing?

Just in case this is helpful to anyone in the future, the top bolt for the swaybar disconnect link is a 3/8 UNC x 1 1/4
