Default factory bolt size

My factory lower shock bolt in the rear is missing. It is in a 07 JKUR. Does anyone know what size the factory bolt is supposed to be?

Well it's metric, so you need a grade 10.9 stamped on the head.

Does it have to be the flange head? I don't feel like paying an arm and a leg through the dealer and I can't find a flange head in my area.

They only have the M12X1.75X50.00 not the factory M12X1.50X70.00 I went out and checked mine and I don't think the 50 is long enough
