I PB blasted the ef out of 'em and they wont budge. Also I could have sworn that they are 11mm on my '85 -SE rear. My '79 has a -SE rear also but an 11mm wont fit and 12mm feels to loose.

Is anyone here?

What about the size's. Guess I need to double check my '85... I think I used different bolts when I put it back in and that's why I remember them being 11mm.
