Wishbones with 10mm holes for balljoints, but clip on ARB mount?

[alistairolsen]

I went to replace my balljoints at the weekend to find my car has 10mm holes, in spite of having the correct ARB mounts for a 172.
I've filed out the holes and fitted the 12mm joints, but I just wanted to A) find out where these wishbones are from ad B) are they the same geometry as the 12mm ones?

I'm happy to change them, but I'd prefer to avoid the work if it's unnecessary. Anyone shed any light?
Cheers

Should be 12mm.

I think the none sports came with 10mm.

Yea Probable they were replaced in the past with normal non sport ones.

Afaik its just the bushes and ball joint holes that are different.

Has anyone got both and could compare them? If its just the holes then I'll keep them as they've had reinforcing plates welded on top and black power flex bushes fitted.

Cheers

Oh. Then Deffo keep and just widen the 10mm holes.
