Not sure which bolt you mean. Might be as simple as going to a Napa parts place. Send me your e mail address I just did a conversion kit on mine ( brand new everything $280.00) craigslist
If the bolt is something you re use. From the drum units I might have

The bolt is different from drum to disc. I believe the depth of the threaded hole in the spindle is deeper for disc so the bolt is a different length.

the lower two can be used from the drums..

looks like the bearings are the same also..
.
only thing i'm missing now is brakepads and brake caliper pins..
