Possible to buy strut mount studs?
Which studs?
The center one that hold the spring and strut together?
Or the one that connect it to the frame of the car (three in the front and two in the rear).
The ones that you connect to the car are Metric Size 8, thread 1.25 not 1.00.
You need a 13mm socket though... the original studs are 12mm.
You can get them at most hardware stores like Home Depot or Lowes.
(BTW, when you go to a major store, ask a rep to show you a stud that will fit a 12mm socket first. If they can't find one, then ask if they would be willing to cut you a deal on a socket if you buy a 13mm.
At lowes, I was able to get a 13mm deep socket for half price at $2.00 because they didn't carry a 12mm stud)

I have to replace this bracket as well in a couple of days when I'm installing my new suspension. The nuts stripped the thread when I was torquing them after installing a FSTB (well before torque spec.) I got it for $15 from Courtesy Nissan. The P/N is 53422-31U00.
