Nylock for track rod end

[coala]

These seem to be M11 fine thread, and this is an impossible dimension to find. Can these be ordered at your local TVR dealer? (which we have none in Sweden)

If not: Anyone knows from what car the track rod ends come, so I can find the correct service garage?

Thx!

They're a 7/16" UNF imperial thread. For info they're the same as all of the suspension wishbone fasteners (apart from two at upper-rear which are 1/2").

Strange! All my wishbone fasteners are UNF but all nylocks on the front upright (anti roll bar balljoint, track rod etc) are millimeter. M10 on the ball joints, M14 on the upright/lower wishbone.

Mine is a 1996.

I do apologise the anti-roll bar fixings are 2 x M10 (1 each side), the lower ball joint to lower wishbone are 6 x M8, the huge hub fixings 4 x M14, but the 4 fixings (2 each side) for the upper wishbone (and camber slot) are 7/16" on mine. The track rod end on mine was also definitely 7/16" when I replaced it. Mine is also a 96. Very puzzling.

Mine too '94

Indeed... I will check once more. Either my track rod ends have been replaced by the first owner, or I completely messed up when I did the measurements.

Thanks for your input!
