Angry What are the bolts for my brake caliper brakets

I have a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo I6 and I replaced the front brakes the other day but lost one of my caliper bracket bolts and need to find a replacement. Not the bolts on the actual caliper but the other two on the bracket themselves. I've looked everywhere for the part and cant find it. Starting to think it just doesn't exist anymore. Is there anyone who can help me out?

FYI: The bolt measures 1 3/4 inch long and is a flange hex bolt with a 3/4 inch hex.

I greatly appreciate any help!!

Chances are the bolt is metric. Take the other one and go to an industrial fastener supply house or the dealer and get another one.

So I got to the bottom of it, the bolt that I needed is a Class 10 fine thread flange bolt. After searching everywhere online for the bolt I found a very vague answer of the part number and went from there. Just in case anyone else is searching heres the information to get a replacement bolt for your caliper bracket.

P/N: 05012437AA
Price: $3.20
length: 1 3/4 inches
Bought and ordered from local dealer who was able to verify that it is in fact the correct bolt. Ordered it today (4-29-2014) and it will be available tomorrow morning by 8.

Anyways, I hope my information helps someone else in this position.

And much thanks to dave1123 and mwilliams0311, much appreciated.

Just as a comparison, I bought an M10X100 fine thread flange head bolt from an industrial supply house for $1.50. That's about 3/8 X4". They sell bolts by the pound. They are Grade 12. That was for my steering damper. The PO had used a Grade 5 hardware bolt and it snapped.

Hmmmmmmm. I have two sets of WJ brakes, and they use a 1/2X20 flange head frame bolt. Just happen to have a couple extra hanging around
