Half lock nuts for top ball joint
 
Hi I have wishbones made by Phil at Talon and my build is MX5 based, top ball joint is BMW am I correct in thinking that the thread is 14mm x 1mm pitch?.
As I need to order some back nuts.

Regards MIck.

I check in the morning but I think they are M14x1.5 mm but I can't remember so I'll get back to you.

Hi all although Phil said he would check and get back to me and forgot I trusted his judgement and ordered some M14 x 1.5 nuts and as usual he was correct, so this might be of some interest to builders using MX5 donor parts the BMW TRE's are M14 x 1.5 thread

My apologies for not getting back to you (and any body else waiting on me) I've been some what distracted past week or so with the Wife's medical needs. It turns out the results of a 3 month over due MRI has shown the pain in her back is caused by undiagosed Osteoporosis and having 5 fractured vertebrae in her lower back :eek: :mad:

christ thats not so good Phil, hope now that they've made a diagnosis she can get the medical treatment she needs and get on the mend.

Sorry to hear that Phil I hope your wife gets better soon
Regards MIck.
