I can't tell you exact size length or thread but the parts counter at Mitsu can. That's how I had to find out for mine. But remember that all those Bolts are grade 10.9 . You should use the same grade or you risk some very bad things happening. My suggestion is just go to Mitsu and order all those bolts all at once and have them over nighted if possible. It will be more $$ than your local Homie DePote But IMO, very much worth every penny to have the assurance that they are not going to break at highway speeds, sending you spiraling into a median or embankment, and have your car end up looking like this (only with out the wheels attached):
Hope I was able to help

i am not asking you to tell me sizes. tell me which bolts you broke. I have every bolt from every location stored for cars i have parted out. which bolts did you break? Bolts that hold the hub on? bolts that bolt the bracket to spindle? bolts that hold caliper to bracket?

ah ok, basically i dont have any of the bolts. so whatever bolts i would use during the rear disc conversion i guess. i'll pay you whatever for them. i appreciate your help.

ok well you have 4 bolts for the hub, your car has them and they are reuseable but i can give you 8 of those, 2 bolts for the caliper bracket to spindle. so 4 of those. the bolts for the caliper to bracket i dont have, those hardly broken and if you need to replace them you are better off with a new set from local parts store, you need the hardware kit for the calipers. Thats it off the top of my head. I will pull them tonight and wrap them up for you.
Email me you personal info so i can figure shipping

Peace Terry, Excuse me for "intrudin' " but bein' that you have a few parts, I thought I'd ask if you may have a part you wouldn't mind sellin'. I need both Left & Right Flex Lines for the Drum to Disc conversion. I purchased the rear calipers without the Flex Lines, I also need One Bolt that attaches the Caliper to the Backing Plate (the smaller/shorter bolt - as if you didn't know). Would you happen to have those parts? If so, just let me know how much you'll take (I WANT to pay you for your troubles and help) for them shipped to 37042... I'll pay you via PayPal, includin' the 3% fee...
Thank you in advance...I also PM'ed you with the same question.
