I think they are 7/16" as opposed to 1/2". Do Raceways at Donnington stock them?

Hi Pete, thanks. I can't phone Raceways until I know what size they are as I gave away all my old nuts with the other car last year. Any idea what thread they would be?

thanks Dusty, much appreciated. One of those questions that should be simple to solve, but wasn't. Until now

Don't forget that unless someone changed the studs, the N/S will be LH thread....

mmm,ok Blue I'll check. Pretty sure when I did the rear brake shoes the nuts came off in 'normal' fashion.
