Default Wheel alignment help

I went to get my wheel alignment done this week. One of the bolts had seized and the nut has been rounded off on the rear.
Can some one please help me identify the adjustable nut and bolt that I need to buy to replace it.
Its on the end of what I thought was the track or trailing arm.
I've searched google and SN but not found the correct one. All I keep coming up with is adjustable camber bolts.

I would appreciate the help greatly.

Cheers

Post a picture of the bolt and year and model of car that will help us. Easiest way would be to get the bolt from Subaru. Use an angle grinder to cut down the nut so it can be broken off. Try not to damage the threads as you will need to be able to put a nut on the bolt to prevent damage whilst you beat the hell out of it to get the bolt out.
When you come to fit the new bolt, give everything a good clean up and then give the bolt a good covering of copper based to prevent further corrosion.

I cant order the bolt from the website that was recommended. No answer on the phone either.
