70 upper control arm finish for large nuts?
« on: October 25, 2010, 03:02:43 AM »
What is the correct finish for the two large nuts that thread into the upper control arm?

Not those ones, the large ones on each end of the upper control arm shaft that carry the grease fittings. They thread into the control arm and the shaft threads into the nut.
