Suspension Turret Nuts

[PDale]

Hi guys, I want to get some stainless steel nuts for where the suspension bolts in to the turrets.

Can I order them from anywhere? If so what type of nut do I need, i.e. dome topped nut? Thread size? Its for an FD and the suspension is Tein (the original nuts are being used at the moment so thread is same as standard)

Bit of a stupid question but not really sure tbh!

IIRC they\'re fine pitch - M10 or M12 x1.0 I think - it\'s nigh on impossible to find stainless nuts in fine pitch
I had to resort to chrome plated nyloc, they were all my local fastenings place could get hold of

EDIT: If I\'d actually been bothered to Google though, I could have found them pretty easily...

Still not 100% on the thread size though.

Cheers for that. I\'ll try and measure if they\'re M10 or 12 before I order them but would these be ok:

Still not awake, just realised you had posted a link to stainless ones already and cheaper when incl delivery!

Just in case anyone else is interested, the standard nuts are M10 1.25 Pitch Flange Nut (smooth base).

I bought them from here for just over £12 delivered for all 6:

Arrived in under 24 hours and look much better than the old rusty ones. You can buy them off Ebay slightly cheaper, but delivery is 1 week+ and they only sell the ones with the serrated base (the ones on the above link have a drop down to choose the smooth base).

The standard nuts have a 14mm hex, whereas the ones above have a 15mm hex. If when you get them you wonder why your 14mm socket will not fit!
