So on the control arms in the back where you bolt the bottem of your rear suspension into that big nut that's on the control arm..... mines stripped out drivers and passenger side, I saw someone post about this but cannot find the post.. can you take the BIG nuts off and replace them or do I got to replace both control arms? Any one know the size of those nuts and if they come off?

 

Come on I know someone knows what I'm talking about!!

 

took a pic after work, please help so i dont have to rock it scetch like this hahaha

 

Those aren't nuts, those are threaded studs that mount into the control arm. I just looked at the parts catalog...here's what you're looking for (you need 2 of each - one per side):

F044-28-398 - shock mounting stud
H260-34-037A - bolt
FB01-28-401 - washer

You're probably looking at around $20-25 per side for the parts at a dealer.

 

o.m.g. broski you are my best friend! haha thank you so much, so thats straight from mazda?

 

Heya... i have experience in these...Me and Jason removed some from one car and swapped over to another car last summer... Prepare yourself with a big breaker bar and a " i think" a 29mm socket, but it might be a 32mm. Anyway, fairly straight forward and simple.

 

Thank you=) blah I want it to be summer!
