I'm guessing pretty much every junk yard would have the bolt that holds the caliper in place(18mm head) but there isn't one close to me. Does anyone know if I can get one online? Thanks

When you replace those your suppose to use a new bolt w pre-applied thread locker blue. NOT PERMATEX. This stuff is made by locktite. Ford actually sends the bolts to locktite to get them pre-applied before re-sale.
Anyway, you either get them from the dealer, (Common Part)for about 9 bucks.
Or
Find one from the bone yard, like your doing, -apply a product called Quickstix Blue or Red to the threads before installing the bolt. Stuffs cheap on ebay, - it's like a over-sized tube of chapstick lol.
Otherwise, it will fall out again most likely.

Those are Anchor Plate bolts. You can take out a rim, tire and misc brake parts if the wrong one falls out lol. There's two.

Trust me, you def want to put that Quickstix/locktite on it. I've had a caliper go through a rim before, wasn't a good experience.
Most of your new parts come pre-frabbed with that on it, such as spark plugs with anti-seize. I would just find one online.
