front suspension bolt size

[jdbubb at verizon.net (Dan Bubb)]

The M12 X 1.5 indicates a 12mm diameter and a thread pitch of 1.5mm i.e. peak to peak on the thread is 1.5mm.
There is no length indicated in ETKA for these bolts.
I'd think this is a good location to use the factory hardware and a good opportunity to buy new eccentric bolts and washers at the same time.
