If I'm not mistaken, it's a special 7/16" bolt. Not sure of the length, 2 1/4- 2 1/2"? Has a square collar on one end, with no head for a wrench. Square collar on bolt, fits into a square hole on the collar that fits around the slip joint(?) that's on the end of the shaft, and also goes thru a cutout on the shaft that goes thru the column, to lock everything together. Didn't measure mine when I assembled it, so the sizes are guestimates. Hope this helps?
