      If your OE struts are still fitted, you can measure the diameter of the bolt. Measure both sides to be sure.

            N 90624401 was pulled from the catalogue for a 1994 ACOQ and specifically for the 3B, AAH, NG, ABC and ABY engines. Most of these use the hub carrier for 82 mm front wheel bearings. But that said, there is no special call-out for the bolt for the 75 mm bearing hub carrier, i.e. they should both use the N 90624401.

              In this case KATE can't be trusted and a vernier is your friend. The bolts changed from m12 to m14 without a chassis number break point, some people even have M12 on one side of the car and M14 on the other. Easy / quick way is to remove the wheel and measure the bolt protruding through the nut, no need to remove or order anything
