Re: Size of bolt
I will have to double check then. i think i tried all the wrenches i have and did not have one to fit to be able to remove the u-bolt from the trailing arm to remove the rear end. i will look again in the am.

Re: Size of bolt
Your right about the 1 1/8th. Just did two of them yesterday. Had to go buy a wrench and a socket cause I didnt have them.
