Hey all I'm wanting to know where I have to look for the control arm bolt in my front suspension as I'm getting an anti-lift kit soon, wanting to see if it's 18mm or 22mm. I have no idea what I'm looking for? Can someone elaborate please?

Look underneath the car from just behind the front wheel.

The lower control arm is an A shape with the point towards the brakes, and the base parallel to the care centreline.

At the BACK of the base there is a bracket with a rubber bush in it.
If you have the 20 mm type there is a plain stub of steel sticking through the centre of the bush, it then points towards the rear of the car.

It is most likely that you have the 20mm version.

I believe that the 18 mm type is actually a threaded bolt with a nut and washer fitted onto it, I may be wrong.
