Im using the Transit ball joint and Escort mk2 rack and just measured the rack end thread; M14 (diameter) x 2.0mm (thread.)
Hope this helps:)

I presume you are talking about the nylocs or castle nuts that hold the track rods and the ball joints IN TO the bottom of the upright and the mushroom? I have a thread gauge and zeus book at the shop I'll check later, the tapers will be the same as the OE parts obviously how ever I can't say the same for the threads.
