    Default Vectra C Rear trailing arm bolts

    Afternoon gents,
    I need to replace the rear trailing arm front bushes and the bolts for bracket that hold the rear axle to the chassis are a bit rusty.
    My plan is to slacken the nuts on the bolts that go through the bush, move the bolt towards the sill and angle grind the head off so I can remove the bolt with the bracket in-situ.
    Then fit the new bolt fom the inside and pit the nut nearest the sill.

    Does anyone have the part number for the nut and bolt?

    After that it's air chisel the old bushes out and fir Powerflex hence saving £190 for the bush removal/insertion tool.

    Thank you

    Wink Update

    So, I called my local garage and they quoted a very reasonable £107.78, to replace both bushes with a Moog bush. Thought I’d give them the pleasure. Will report back once they’re done.
