Thread wise it will depend on the ball joint itself (mine have differed)

But head size - perhaps 19mm from memory

Sorry for the misinformation, it is 22mm (or 7/8") socket size

There are definitely both Metric and Imperial versions of the ball joint as I have found the nuts are not interchangeable (a rather annoying discovery as you can imagine)
