What size nuts go on the bottom of the motor mounts?

I just dropped my engine in last night and I'll be damned but I can't find the nuts that go on the bottom of the motor mount from under the car... I don't have a factory service manual, and my cruddy haynes manual doesn't say (not surprisingly).

Anyhow, I need to know what size and thread the are. they look like a 14mm with a 1.25 pitch, but I can't tell for sure.

Anyone know or know where to look it up?

I think they are 14mm, but I can't remember for sure. I know that I have a 14 on the impact gun everytime I am down there to pull or drop in an engine if that helps They should be the typical 14mm that are found all over the car if I remember right.

I have the FSM for your car on my site if you want to try looking through it.

14mm wrench or socket but it is a 10mm bolt probably 1.0 thread. it is the coase thread pitch like the exhaust nuts. to get the reduced 14mm size you may need a specialty bolt company, hardware and auto parts nut will probably end up with a 15mm wrench or socket size.

14 mm coarse thread. The same as the bolts on the top side of the motor mount.

Cool guys, thanks for the responses... I'll just pick up a couple of the 12m 1.25 and the 10m 1.25 and see what works

BTW, is there washer under there too? Is it a locking washer?

Thanks again
