solstice Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 My knowledge of imperial thread sizes is non existent! I have removed the spare wheel and would like to put a cap head bolt into the fixing to stop the crud accumulating, does anybody know the thread size?thanksGareth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM25T Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I recall it is a very fine thread pitch .... so if imperial will be UNF How about using a plastic plug that fits tight in the hole ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revilla Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Saw this on eBay today. Nothing to do with me. Just thought you may be interested. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=251816060837&alt=web Sorry can't manage a proper link from my mobile!

AndrewB Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I leant against my spare wheel on the car today and it moved (a lot). Upon closer inspection it appears the nut and washer on the spare wheel boss had worked loose at some point. From a crude measurement of the spare wheel boss, it seems I need a 5/8" UNF. Before I order one from ebay can somebody confirm if this is correct please.http://www.caterhamparts.co.uk/product.php?id_product=1280 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted June 4, 2016 Member Share Posted June 4, 2016 Don't know, and it's not in the bolt list.Just been out to measure my nut: 23.9mm across faces. So probably 5/8".Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Area Representative paul richards Posted June 5, 2016 Area Representative Share Posted June 5, 2016 I'm pretty sure it's 5/8ths UNF on my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
