Do you have a link to the specific nut and bolt? I want to make sure I get the right one

Just for the record for this thread, I have just installed new arms with pre-installed Turner monoballs. Too early to report driving feel, I think. Plus it's winter, with winter tires installed - I'm not sure any words like "precision" should be used to describe winter tire driving.

I have noticed some improvements, such as a manhole cover in a right hand sweeper which ALWAYS upset the car (I mean pretty much always, not just since my thrust arm bushings failed) didn't affect the front end at all, even with the winter tires. It tracked straight through with no correction or steering movement at all. Nice...
