Default 02 wagon ARB diameter

Can anyone tell me the diameter of my standard front arb? I need new bushes and don't want to get it wrong.

Cheers!

19mm seems to ring a bell, but not sure, can't you measure it? I don't have standard anymore.

Have you got a set of spanners? Handy for measuring ARBs.

Its all a bit rusty. I didn't want to get a bit where its corroded/bubbled and get the wrong size. Si, i thought maybe it was a 19mm too. It could do with replacing really but i can'f afford a nice new one yet. Stiggy, good idea, i'll try the spanners. I'm in work at the minute too and can't get out to check. Just want to get them ordered.

I've measured it - 20mm, sort of. its about 20.3 so maybe thats making up for the paint?

Ebay shows different shaped bushes, anyone know which one i'll want? I think its the first picture.

The lower picture looks more like bushes for the rear... I don't know what the front ones look like though, so I'm not much help really!
