I'd say short one. Long one does not look right or genuine. What is on the end of it?

As I see it, most bolts on the car use a heavy flanged head type rather than a 'standard' bolt with a loose washer.

Debs is correct, however looking at it, it would appear to have picked up on the threads.
Caution should be exercised here, make sure you don't end up with a scenario where the trailing arm needs to be replaced Brian |
