Jon,
I know the early cars (up to '67-1/2) had SAE 5/16-24 threads, but did the
later (metric) cars retain the SAE threads? The top pivots were changed to
non-adjustable types with the '68 models, as I recall, and I wonder whether
Nissan would have kept SAE threads on newer parts.
The 5/16-24 acorn nuts were very hard to find in stainless, but eventually I
did (20 years ago).
