Default torque arm bolt????????

my damn craftsman tool kit skips around in size, will someone please tell me what size the damn bolts are that bolt the toque arm to the rear?? i've been under this damn car so many times already and now that its raining i figured i'd come in here warm up and see if someone could give me a hand lol. i just got the car off the ground climbed under with a handfull of sockets and none fit, go in the basement and grab some different sizes and none fit im thinking it must be a metric size that i will have to go buy.

They are 21mm... but a 13/16" would work but would be tight since its slightly undersized. But if you have the 21mm that is best.

Hope that helps!

beat it with a plastic hammer, and stick a long screwdriver in the holes at the same time and push in the direction you need it to go
