would like some new wheel nuts on the sag, flea bay is full of the things, but they state M12 thread, whereas the sag manual is UNF, so anyone have any ideas?

Think strangely enough they are the same as MGB Rostyle wheel nuts. 1/2" UNF and seat taper the same. You can get those nuts from the MGB dealers such as Sussex Classic Car Parts - either chromed steel or stainless steel. Think that's the cheapest route from what I've seen.

I got some off eBay Clive, they are chrome with domed ends and are 1/2" UNF, I think they were listed as Toyota or Jag wheel nuts.

Thread is deffo 1/2" unf, just bought some wheel nuts for my T350 from ebay and well pleased with them. Got them from tyresfor sale.com. Checked the taper and thread before fitting and identical to original nuts. 23 quid for 20.

Hi Clive

Same as Jeep Cherokee fitment. 19mm hex with 1/2" unf thread. 60 degree taper.

Standard ones are cloled cap and are 32mm in length overall. I know all this as have done a drawing / programme as was looking to make some stainless ones (too expensive at the minute)

Cheers

Lee

I got fed up with replacing every couple of years due to rust (yes I use the car in the wet) so bought a set of these:



No problems with rust after 4 years so far.
