Default Sway Bar Nut Size

While flexing out on Monday I went to check all my brake lines and clearance and noticed my passenger side sway bar link was loose. Upon inspection the upper nut was gone. I'm running metal cloak solid links and the stock nuts fit. I just don't know the size, thread, etc to get a replacement. Anyone know the size or know where to get a new one?

Take the bolt or link into a hardware store and get a replacement nut, or maybe someone will chime in who knows.

I think I lied. the lower bolt/nut is 12mm 1.5 the upper stud nut is 12mm but not fine thread. Quadratech lists them as the same but they are not.
