awg

My trackbar bolt (and the special tag nut) has stripped thread

I will be off to the fastener shop, and they should be able to gauge it, but the thread is very flat

so many Imperial fasteners? (1/2") on the front end, I dont even know for sure, presumably its metric ?

While I am at it, the little clamp that locks the front spring down threads into the spring pan directly...the female thread is stipped

the bolt head is 1/2"...I am thinking to try and thread the next size up metric in there, failing that tap the spring pan..its a kind of blind hole, so you cant get a nut under there

awg

after I got a bolt from the fastener shop, my flag nut was ok, job done

I found this thread randomly, after a "search" was fruitless

to help disseminate info for the future
