Should be a metal clip that looks like a bent paper clip that goes over the end of the dog bone. Part No. 529201showing as NFP though.
That is presuming you've got freely moving linkages and a brand new dogbone.
If not then you need to get those linkages free and you need a new dogbone as they wear/crack making them pop off even when everything is working properly.
