Sorry, didn't see reply. No i can't remember exact size. they are metric so try a couple sizes. Is it rusted, maybe hit with some liquid wrench? Mine came out easily once i used the added leverage. btw maybe you need a second set of hands to hold assy in place, i used a strut machine when i did mine
