Recently had my corsa mot'd > failed > fixed and remot'd > passed

It failed on -

suspension arms
steering uj

I got hold of some suspension arms and had the garage fit them but they told me that the vertical bolts that connect the anti roll bar to the suspension arm was too short (by about 4 threads) and would need to get it replaced. I was suprised when they said it still passed its mot and i could drive it away!

anyway my question is... would i actually need to get this replaced???? if so does anyone know which bolt it is.

The car is a corsa b 1.0

You dont need the ARB to pass an MOT.. Sounds like they have tried to put the brackets on the wrong ends of the ARB.
