Hi,

I felt a thumping in the back of me rover and found out the nut for my OME shock (lower rear mount) fell off. this is for the standard N44 shock.

Does anyone know the size of this nut? if not i will be going to the hardware store and buying a whole variety of nuts. it looks like a fine thread.

thanks,
Rob

Rob,

It is a fine thread and the nut is 19mm. Just finished installing mine. Hope it helps.

Rob, it's 12mm 1.25 pitch - very hard to find - it's a rare lug bolt thread. Call OME and have 'em send u 1.

thanks

according to my machinery's handbook ,there are not metric bolts with a head size near 19mm,

though 3/4" is damn close.

3/4 outside dimension = 1/2"-fine thread

thanks

Maybe I described it wrong, I guess what I meant to say was that the outside size of the nut is 19mm (I used a 19mm wrench to put the nut on).

Happy Hunting!

got a Copper State Nut & Bolt near you? That's where I get all my odd Rover metrics (driveshaft mount, rotos, pinion nut, adventure rack tap & nuts/bolts, etc).
