Nuts and Bolts

[Dave]

Can anyone here tell me what size the front lower strut mount bolts are on a 2002 Saturn L200? I have looked around and have only gotten part numbers and no dimensions. I ask because I have one that is in bad shape and should be replaced but the GM dealer wants too much for a replacement.

Contact MOOG corporation-they may have the info, you could also try Gabriel and Monroe.

I tried and all I got were part numbers no dimensions

OK you could remove one of them, take it to a good hardware store or parts store and match it up that way, or go a salvage yard and pull some. Grade and hardness of the bolts matter in this application.

mic it?

I don’t want to drive the car with only one bolt in there, but this is what i was thinking to go get a bolt from the hardware store for like $1.00. I put a wrench over the bit sticking out and it seems to be a 12mm?
BTW the dealer wants $40.00 each bolt

Could you get a friend to drive you to the salvage yard after you call ahead and see if they have what you need?

[Dave]

Sadly no

[Walter Cheryba]

Is this what you are trying to replace?

Yes but just a regular bolt not the camber adjusting one.

Sorry broke-I’m out of ideas-good luck!
