Front Suspension Bolt: Size?

Hi all,

Tried to change my suspension just now, but I found out that I don't have the correct socket size for the lower mounting bolt (the one that you torque to 120 ft.lbs).

Can someone tell me what is the size for that thing? 22mm? 21? 20?

Thanks you!

use a 17mm socket to remove the bolt and a adjustable wrench to hold the 19MM nut, thats what I do if I am too lazy to go back inside to get the 19MM nut!!!!

19mm and 17mm, eh?

Got it.... I have both size, but I don't have enough clearance for my 19mm. I need to run to Autozone and buy the deep 19mm socket.

Thanks guys!
