2 suspension questions 200

Anyone know the dimensions of the upper and lower mounting bolts for the rear shocks on a 245? Length, Diameter, Pitch? Easily available at the local hardware chain? No, I haven't ruined anything, but I like to know my options.

And this one is purely out of curiosity, since I don't own a 240 with manual steering. Is it possible to replace the strut tubes on a man. steering 240 with those from a power steering model, just for ease of ball joint replacement? Or would that involve swapping out other parts as well, like control arms and steering assemblies and such.

Thanks.
