DISLEXICDIME Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Curious why you say this, unless you mean just a bolt small enough in diameter to fit through the smallest diameter of the crossmember sleeves, which is rather small. I don't see a problem with a 5/8ths bolt through a new, larger sleeve - it's larger than the stock bolt. I have seen a few cars that people on here have just taken a long bolt from the hard wear store and ran that in place of the lower control arm pin. That is a lot of force on a bolt I have seen the stock con troll arm pin get bent from hitting a curb just think of all that force on a grade 8 bolt. Quote Link to comment

A 5/8ths grade 8 is going to be stronger than the stock pin, especially if used correctly (ie full shank, not just threads, through the LCA bushing/heim, and a new, tight sleeve through the crossmember.
