Just curious if anyone knows the sizes of these? My VH which I'm working on is in another suburb (a suburb with no toolshops), and I know one of these nuts is a giant, so I need to pick up some bigger tools..... but I'm not sure of the size. It could be 24mm.

Does anyone know the sizes of these three? My manual is unfortunately in the same suburb as the car, although I don't think that lists the sizes.

The back of the radius rod on a VS is 30mm if that helps. Can't remember the vh one.

I keep forgetting this car has imperial bits. Thanks, 15/16 is likely one of the sizes.

There is a bigger nut down there though, which could be about 30mm?

In the unlikely event anyone else has the same question:

Front radius nut is 15/16"
Rear radius rod nut is 30mm (you will want a socket with a very short lip for this as the nut is shallow)
LCA bolt/nut is 3/4"
