OK. In the process of rebuilding my front suspension I ran into the deal where I had to destroy the rear bolt on the drivers side because it bonded to the metal bushing. Anyway, I took a quick measurement and found the bolt appears to be 11mm...Is this right? I can't find that size. I found 7/16 is close. Does anyone know if the Fierostore bolts are MM or standard? What size? I will buy them if they are identical to the originals, but I don't see why I couldn't get some locally for the bottom CA's...

12mm x 95mm with a 10.9 thread, thats for an 88' front lower a-arm bolt according to the dealers books. Hope that helps. If you can find some please let me know, we're in the same boat. david

The bolts the Fiero store sells are supposed to be the correct size ones or they wouldn't work. You can also try your local GM dealership to see if they still have them in stock.

I rebuilt the front and rear suspension on my '87. The GM dealer could not supply the bolts in question. However, they did supply me the correct sizing. Contact your GM dealer they should be able to tell you what the correct size is.
