Does anyone know what thread size the mini ball joints are? or do they vary?

Ive just been to the nut and bolt place with one of the other nuts and they have given me one that fits, but it doesnt feel tight enough. I think they might have given me a metric one, just tried it on the metro turbo hub and it fits perfect.

Does anyone know what thread size it could be? they said if i found out they can give me one.

thankyou!!

I can't remember the size of the top of my head but I am fairly sure it didn't change across Minis. Think the Metro might have used metric though as they are a bit of a mix n match of fasterner standards.

I'll try to find out.

Every day is a school day ...........

How fast and how expensive ...... the same question...
