UPDATE!!!!

Ok guys after talking to Raybestos on the phone about this problem. And completly stumping the guy on the phone till he researched for me. Come to find out my 2000 5.9 1500 4wd. Has the 00-01 2500/3500 Control Arms on it!!

1500's
Upper control arm bolts are a 12mm
Lower control arm bolts are a 14mm

2500/3500 (00-01)
Upper control arm bolts are a 14mm
Lower control arm bolts are a 16mm

My 1500 Has 14/16mm bolts, therefore from the factory my truck came with 2500/3500 control arms/bushings. Hope this helps out anybody in this situation.

Measure your bolts before ordering control arm bushings!!!

NOW yalls opinion on Dorman vs Raybestos control arms?? Dorman is a little cheaper on rockauto than raybestos. Hows the Dorman quality??

Bad. Raybestos is worth the extra couple bucks.
