Anyone know what tap is needed for the suspension arm threads? I’m finding it very difficult to install the axles and shafts.

I think a standard M12 tap or die will do.

Thanks Ed! I'll pick up an M12 tap as it seems to be primarily the aluminum suspension arm threads that need cleaning up. The steel threaded axles and shafts seem to be fine.
