Default Hardware for rear sway bar?

I just bought a set of GT sway bars from Ebay for $21. I know I've seen on here before what the specs are for the rear sway bar mounting hardware, but I can't seem to find it today. Can somebody please tell me what hardware I'll need for the install? Thanks!

Did it come with the end links (convertible p/n 5R3Z5C488BA) and stabilizer bar brackets (p/n 4R3Z5486AA)?

And the rubber pieces under the brackets.

I think the bushings come with them, but I could be wrong.

I got the same deal although I think mine were like $34 shipped or something. At any rate it was a steal.

Mine came with everything I needed to install them except the hardware (nuts, bolts, etc.) I went to the Ford dealer and asked about them and the parts guy said that it would be $45 for the hardware. He gave me the sizes and I went to a local hardware shop and got the right size bolts and nuts, as well as lock washers and flat washers for like $9.

Probably the best and definitely the cheapest mod i've done to my car. Just make sure you throw some blue thread lock on there for sound of mind and tighten the **** out of them so they dont rattle when you turn or go over bumps.

You bet! Before you put it on you can feel your car roll but you don't realize just how bad it wallows around the corners until you put one on and all of a sudden all your cornering is almost flat. Big difference.

Everything I need came with the bars except for the nuts, bolts, and washers I will need. Can somebody please tell me what sizes of these I will need, especially for the rear? I figured I'd re-use the front hardware, but at the very least I can tell what size they are once I have them off. The rear hardware I have no idea. Thanks.
