I have a 1994 Buick Park Ave and the rear lower control arm bushing bolt broke (on rear bushing) on both sides of the car. I purchased two TRW 12632 (Federal-Mogul) rear control arm bushing kits and was told by my local auto parts store they would come with the nut and bolt but they did not. Does anyone know where I could locate the proper nut and bolt or what grade bolt would be adaquate to use for this application? The bolts are 14mm x 90mm and have a 24mm head (I believe this head is larger than a standard 14mm bolt). My local Buick dealer would not order the nuts and bolts - I guess there isn't enough money in it for him. I checked other auto parts stores and no one sells a kit with the nut and bolt. I have to wonder why they call it a kit when all it contains is one partr - the bushing.

Thanks,
John

Boy, I went to the Dealer to buy those bushings and bolts on mine, 1992, and the Dealer had no problem ordering them, it took about 3 days for them to arrive and pick up. Maybe try another dealer! I've replaced every bushing on my car, to sub-frame bushings and bolts to control arm bushings! Maybe buy a new control arm, they normally have new bushins installed already! And if they told you they where suppose to come with nuts and bolts, maybe they were missing? Hope this helps! :smile:
