The 8mm or 10mm size is the 3 bolts holding the ball joint to the control arm. The 99-01 original control arm had 8mm holes but they were discontinued and replacement control arm are all 02 up with the 10mm holes. If you have a 99 to 01 and have not replaced the lower control arm you will want the 8mm bolt style ball joint. If you a 02 or up 9-5 or replaced the lower control arms on an early model you will want the 10mm style. The information comes from bulletin 731-2472 issued June of 2004.The bulletin goes over modifying an old ball joint to fit the new control arms. Good Luck Bernie at George Riggin Specialty Automotive.
