Yaris front lower arms - need confirmation

[Bossworld]

Question on the Yaris wishbones.

I pulled the trigger on a set of embay wishbones & got a question from the seller - "PLEASE NOTE THE DIAMETER OF THE HOLE IN REAR BUSH FOR THE BOLT IS 12MM. PLEASE CHECK PRIOR TO PURCHASE AS SOME YARIS MODELS HAVE 14MM HOLE IN THE BUSH FOR THE BOLT."

I take it the 12mm bolt hole is correct for us?

Yes

While I tackle swapping out my front suspension I was going to fit my Yaris front lower arms. But reading some of the comments it sound like a painful job to do with hand tools and jack stands?

I've done the job twice.  It was a piglet both times.  I have lift and all the tools on the planet....

You might be better off having your local garage do it.

Thank you @Carolyn. I don't want to start something I struggle to finish

For what it's worth, if you did find that replacements fail (hopefully they won't), it's much easier second time around.

It's fundamentally the initial 'disturbing bolts that have been there for 16 years' problem, IMO.

Mitch,

Here's a post that "might" help re front wishbones.  Replaced mine with eBay ones January 2021. No issues....
