I bought a used IRS to throw on my GT about a year ago. The bolts that it came with to mount the shock to the control arm were clearly not the right size (a ton of play in the hole) so I bought bigger bolts, but I was hoping to get the actual correct size if anyone can help me out. Thanks in advance!:beer:

Thanks a lot. I heard that it is a flag nut. Is there not enough room to get a wrench in there, or would I be fine with a nylon lock nut?

I have several spare OEM nuts (with the anti-rotation tab and thread lock) if you need one. I can send it for just the cost to ship. I needed one and had to buy four, so I have three extras.

The bolt size is M14-2.00 X 130

You should definitely hit up "quicksnake" if you want to use the oem stuff because the dealer will charge you $20 per bolt and $10 per nut :nonono:
