Hey man, Easy solution that is about 99% flush. 3/8" x 1 1/2" round head carriage bolts. The head does fit through and the square just below the head locks into the notch so it won't turn. It's really only the driver's side you can't push down from above so turn slow and gentle or vise grips...- louhazosc

3/8" x 1 1/2 carriage bolt with a 5/16" washer on outer frame should do the trick. Just grabbed a handful and the key shaped slot on the frame "should" allow enough space to fit the carriage bolt head. Worst case is minor grinding. Then below the head is square and very very close to the width...- louhazosc

What about Dorman bolt retainers? How much strength do those have? Maybe that + impact drive?- louhazosc

Thank you for saying retaining clip. That gave me a better search term. I found them for everyone's reference and so I could see an original one. Yes, mine are completely shot. I no longer have the ring surrounding the base of the head. All 4 have a half ring- half rusted away. So they are...- louhazosc

Yeah, the sway links I took off had a 8mm hex tip up top. Tighten that, loosen nut. Thanks youtube. I would say the retainers are original, so yeah, they're garbage. I was lucky to get the nut off. 100% if the bolts were welded in that space to the frame life would be easier. A skill/tools I...- louhazosc
