Default yet another "lowering my corvette" thread

I hate to even start this because i know its been touched on a million times but i cant find the answer..

Where has anyone had success finding the bolts to lower the rear end locally without having to pay the crazy catalog prices and shipping too?

i've been everywhere i can think of with no luck at all. lowe's, homedepot, ace, napa, pep boys, auto zone, some tractor place out in BFE and still no luck. Maybe this is why the bolts are so expensive?

any other ideas or am i stuck paying over $30 for 2 nuts and bolts?

thanks!

I'll expand the question: anyone have the diameter, overall length of the longer bolts and threaded length handy?
