7 wonders of the world Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 are they the ones with a loose washer.....?If so I might be able to help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7_Malc Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 Thanks guys…Redline doesn't have any. No washers involved, just plain chunky nuts. Chris@Redline and I are going to do a thread-length comparison over the weekend, as I am a little worried the newer (shorter?) nuts might not have as much thread. Ideally I would like to keep the car original, so I am still after a single matching nut if one turns up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foggy Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Hi Malc,I might be able to help you out but not 100% sure I have what you're looking for. I bought replacements from Chris at Redline years ago and the invoice tells me they were WHEEL NUT - FORD 12mm DOME (item code SN14). Obviously they're not mint condition but quite happy to send you one of the best if they're suitable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foggy Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Just noticed they're marked 12x1.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7_Malc Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 Thanks Foggy,I'm going to remove one for measuring tomorrow and will post a better photo. If yours does match then I would be very happy to try one and reimburse you any costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7_Malc Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share Posted June 6, 2020 Thanks Foggy. Mine are a little longer at 36mm and take a 19mm socket to rotate them 7 times to finger tight. The thread cavity is 32mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
