Sorry buddy, I don't know what size those bolts are but you're going to need an assortment of tools to pull that thing. They're possibly metric and bigger than 19mm, but I'm just guessing from the pics I've seen.
Good luck with it!

I want to say it is 22mm to remove the nut, then 19mm to remove the bolt. I do not remember for sure but the nut and bolt are two different sizes. There are also the bolts that hold the lower control arm/radias arm to the frame. I know when I went to pull mine at pick and pull I did not have a socket big enough for the nut on top and used a crescent wrench and a 2 foot torque enhancer.
