Need a Bolt

Good afternoon guys, after an extended period of frustration, I am reaching out for help. I bought an Akebono BBK from a yard in Florida (that has been no help), and after having the four calipers sitting in a box for a month, I realized that one of the front calipers is missing a bolt. Of course not the mounting bolts that connect the caliper to the hub assembly, but one of the bolts in the clamshell. If you were going to split the caliper for a rebuild, there are four bolts, two with an "L" stamped into the head, and two with an "S" stamped into the head. I need one of the "L" bolts, and they have been impossible to source. Please help...

If you can't find a part number, then take the one bolt you have to Fastenal.

Or figure out the dimensions on your own and buy it online from a place like Pro-Bolt USA.

Thanks guys, I will have to determine the actual specs of the bolt, then try your suggestions. I got frustrated when I did the same thing in person at a Fastenal location, and they couldn't source the bolt.
