Front Control Arm Bolt Sizes

Post by asummers »

Does anyone know what size the bolts are that hold the a-arm onto the frame? See attached picture with the bolts in question listed. The ball joint nut is a 19mm. And when I tried the other three bolts neither the 19mm or a 17mm would fit them. Are these special sized bolts?

Well, it seems that they are 18mm. Of course that is the one size my socket set and my wrenches doesn't have, not sure why. So, now I get to buy a new 18mm wrench and socket!
