Can anyone tell me what the thread is on the ball joint nut/bolt which connects the upper wishbone to the hub carrier on a pfl vr4?

I stripped the nut on mine being a spastic and over tightening it under tension. /duh

Cheers in advance.

The nut is 17mm i think but i am not sure what that equates to in thread size, let me check roymech for details.

I'll be back!

Well i am back!

And roymech says

17mm nut has a M10 1,25 thread.

Well that is what i think.
