When replacing the lower rear control arms with adjustables (CPP) which of these bolts are needed?
OEM HD Hex Bolt, (12x1.5x80)-
Fully threaded heavy duty hex bolt - For securing rear control arms to subframe & rear spindles, 8 per car
-or-
OEM Hex Bolt (10x35)-
- Mounts rear control arm bracket to body, 8 per car,
And since I'm only doing the lowers, will I only need a quanity of four each?.
Other question, is do you re-use the rest of the bolts that you take the rear shocks off with?
I know I'm being a pain for asking so many detailed questions, but I want to make sure I have all the parts to do it right.
Thanks!

you're right, the lower arms use four bolts @ 2 per arm. I can't confirm size, but the first description: "for securing rear arms to subframe and spindles" would be the one...

I am running
Fr=-1.2'
Rr=-1.2'
Also this would be the perfect time to install Defons in the front.
You can see from my photo I have been down your road already.<ul><li><a href="http://www.mcpii.com/">http://www.mcpii.com/</a</li></ul>
