All you need to do is go to lowes and get two new bolts. You can ditch the whole capita bolt assembly with the welded washer.
The bolts are
metric so look in the metric bolts drawer at lowes or home depot and find the longest metric bolts they have in that size. Be careful there are standard bolts that seem like they would fit but do not use them and only get metric threads. Just bring the stock ikea one with you to make sure it's the right thread. Then get the widest possible washers they have that will fit- I believe the washers I found were with the standard thread bolts.
So I got a metal plate to go through to be sure it was sturdy applying even pressure but if you have the big wide washers and the big plastic ikea washer you should be fine. Just bolt through like this.
