So its probs not M18

I'm sure any MKbuilder could confirm this.
If it's a Transit rod end it's M18, otherwise it may be whatever you like down to M12.

Yeah, i thought that it was and then looked at it, its not a swivel thing. Send MK an Email, by all accounts hes a helpful nice bloke so im sure he wouldnt mind.

Failing that just measure it when (if) you get one!

Does MK ever come on here?

Martin Sports Car - 31/8/03 at 01:53 AM

Yes, Matoso at the end I think to use M12, but as you see some months ago the Bearings sims to be fragil, I speak with the guys from Fisher and they tell me that they use near from M14.

I don't understand why any builder who have one MK Indy don't replay only on that question, but ok..........................

I am building an MK Indy. The thread that you have pointed at is part of the MK design, I don't think it comes from another vehicle.

It is definitely bigger than M12 but I have no means of making an accurate measurement.

Seeing as MK supply all the parts in the kit (the thread and three nuts per side) I don't see how / why any MK builder would need to know the size.

MK really is the best source for that information.

Sorry I can't be of any more help on this subject but I thought you might want to know why the responses may have been poor.

Thanks Russ It's sufficient your information.

when I start mine I plan to M12 but know I will change to bigger dimention probably M14.

Joćo,

I'd start at M18, this is a large diameter threaded rod.

The nuts are about 30mm across the flats and the thread looks to be about 20mm.
