The one I ordered did come with clamps.
I don't remember if I removed the clamp or if its still on there.
This is what one looks like from Wilcox.

I know this is an old post but I just picked up a 78 corvette, the bolt shown in OP's first photo. What is that called, is there a replacement kit for just that? I have looked but am only coming up this a whole suspension kits for sale and not just the bolt. My bushing are worn pretty bad (cracked/crumbling) and I wanted to replace the two rear bolts but I can't seem to find just the bolt/bushing assembly.

Seriously, you should start a new thread with a question like this. For one thing, 79 and down have a different setup than 80 up.
However the outer spring bolts I believe are the same. Yes those bolts and bushings are available from most every Corvette vendor. Often in a kit with new bushings and washers. They are a 9/16th's hardened bolt. Not at all hard to find in stock length and longer lengths for lowering the car.
go to ANY Corvette vendor, put "rear spring bolts ". Into the search feature .
