We usually get them supplied with the drag links. Get them from Rally Designs but buy in bulk for a bit of discount. You can buy them each for £6.50 + Vat or give them a ring and they might sell you a pair of half nuts on their own.

Do you know if they're right handed? Came across these which are a bit more reasonable?

A pack of 5 M18 X1.5 half nuts can be had a tad cheaper here.

M18 half nuts

You could always share the cost with another builder

Did have some spare ones here but have passed them on to other builders on the forum

M18 x 1.5mm half nuts from our local guy are 42p each but if you have 25 they are 25p each, he is not the cheapest but is the nearest. might be worth hunting about and doing a group buy as that is a lot cheaper.
