Hi guys, i have ordered everything i need to fix up the front end on my cutlass. I am having a hard time finding the bolts that are used to attach the upper control arms to the frame. They have "teeth" or splines on the end of the bolt to prevent them from spinning when adjusting the upper suspension. I have talked with a few members on the chat and i have called summit to try getting the correct bolts, but im not having any luck. Does anyone have the part# for this or a good source where i can order them from. I know the alternative is to tack weld the bolts in , but id rather not do that and fix this the right way.

thanks in advance

These are for an A-body http://www.ebay.com/itm/64-74-Upper-Con ... 500wt_1287

I don't know if they'll work for the g-body but they are not easy to find for our cars. I looked for a while before I bought the umi ones.


I think they will work for a G body. I think they are not listed for a G body is cause they are not metric thread

I got your PM and am checking my part number from a previous order. When I bought mine they were still available from GM. If I don't find the part number quick enough you might try stopping by a dealership to see if they can pull it up for you.

I know there were a few bolts on the front end that I used the F-body part numbers on because GM showed the G-body numbers as discontinued. But the F-body bolts were the same exact part, go figure.
