Default Torque arm bolt size
Does anyone know the size of the bolt that connects the torque arm to the rear end?

I think it is M14 x 2 x 185, but the book also lists a M10 x 1.5 x 80 for some reason.

Weird. I also looked on spohns website because that's whose t/a it is. They list 9/16 bolts with no length but they have to be at least 7.5 inches long. I can't seem to find anywhere that has them in grade 8.

That makes me thinks the M14 bolt is the right one. 9/16 is around 14mm and 185mm=7.28".

just paid $28 for 2 bolts, 2 washers, and 2 lock nuts. FYI the cheapest way to get the bolts is through ebay, to save $10 on shipping charges.
