Icon7 Suspension Bolts

I"m doing Ground Control systems on my car. I ordered them longer so I could keep original height. I started work on the second rear strut late in the day and should've stopped as it got darker. I cross-threading (just a little) the bolt holding the anti-sway bar. It's hard to get in anyway. When I did all the bushings a few years ago, I purchased all new bolts, but only installed the ones I thought needed to be replaced...from rust.

Skunk2 LCAs are aluminum, much easier to cross-thread. Anyway, I was considering what I could do without buying new LCAs. Even drilling out the threads and putting in a longer bolt so I could have a nut on the other side. This morning at 4am, I found a bolt from the front suspension, that had a little longer thread, but more inportantly its one of the Honda tapered bolts. The end of the bolt is more pointed for getting into holes that are difficult to line up. Cleared the cross-thread with it just fine. Installed, torqued. Solved. Yay!
