The rear trailing arms are all the same. It should have been a 17mm bolt you took out, I doubt someone had to tap that hole and use a larger bolt sometime in the past. You need a shock mounting stud like the one on page 4 here http://www.mazdamotorsports.com/pdfs...Suspension.pdf but that part # is no longer available from Mazdaspeed. It's for a Koni, but the threads are correct and I would bet the stud diameter and length would fit your shocks. Surely any of the Koni dealers could probably get the studs.
Sounds to me like GC has their inventory mixed up.
I use Koni's.
