OK! How did you break it?

Don't know the bolt size but it should be easy enough to measure new compared to old and shorten to fit.

All these bolt sizes are different depending on the spring used; 7 leaf, 9 leaf, mono etc...

Having bolts that are too long is great because you can use the grinder to size. Can't you re-use what is in the car now, if shortened?

You may need to identify which specific spring you intend to install so someone can answer your question.
