Just a thought, but if you're going to the effort of replacing the nuts, why not simply change everything to metric? M8 I guess is about the size, though it may need to be fine thread.

I'm sure someone more knowledegable will know whether this is a sensible idea (or not) - I have a feeling the "spiral groove" that runs down the standard bolt is quite important but can't remember why for the life of me. Dave Mods please ban this member for talking metric lol! On 5th Sep, 2011 Vegard said:

Chuckle, sorry. Old money always seems too complicated though. Is a 3/8" spanner bigger or smaller than 11/32, etc.
