    My top mounts are the type with a threaded hole that you put a bolt down into and I use m8 x 30mm if that's any help pal

    For holding it to the strut piston? Don't the top mounts come with the relevant fittings?

    Top mounts come with a choice of size / pitch nuts, as it sounds Will has found. Best to measure them mate, my AVO's were a 1.25 pitch.

    Yep, I assumed wrongly that my ledas would be the same as my Gaz! Cheers craig they look like a 1.25 but I have nothing to hand to measure them. I've searched for ages trying to see if there's a std size that Gaz use, but can't find anything useful.

    Gaz are pretty helpful on techy questions on the phone. I don't have anything to measure thread pitch or I'd measure mine for you
