I think this is the info yer lookin for:

"One of the hardest things to find was the bolts for the bushings. They are metric and aren't sold by the bushing manufacturers. I finally had to go to a specialty bolt and nut supply house. I got this info from Ernie G on the El Camino Mailing List: <http://www.chevyasylum.com/Elky/listabout.html> 
GM used ten M10x1.5x80 and two M10x1.5x55 bolts for the body mounts.
The bolts are 10mm in diameter with a 1.5 thread pitch. The last number is the length of the bolt in mm. "

I am not aware of where you can buy the bolts/washers/nuts as a kit, I
would take them to my local hardware store and replace them with grade
8 if possible (OE are metric?).  Online you could try

I just bought the rubber body mounts for the Elky. There was a 10% off, free
shipping code in my email today. So I pushed the button.

I want to buy all new hardware for them. I have looked through the emails
for all of your recommendations but I am not coming up with what I thought I
saved.

I know Chris had suggestions, or a line on the goods.

Thanks in advance!
