    Here is an answer I got when I was mounting mine.  Because the origional u bracket that mounts to the frame is tapered, it pretty much locates itself.

     :iagree:  I went through the rails, best thing would be to weld bushings through the frame first so as not to crush the frame.

    I was going thru some hardware today and I am pretty sure that this is what the rear sway bar bolts are.
    To my knowledge, the exact reproductions or originals are not available.

    The bolts (8 pcs.) are 5/16 -18 x.70"long Hex washer head screws with paint cutter and CA point.  Silver Zinc finish grade 2 or 5.  The head markings are a 3/4 circle with lines at the 3,6,9 loaction.  The bottom of the hex washer has teeth.

    Here's what the Mopar bolt guide says.
    One on the left is shaped like the letter P.
