Chris,
It's 7/16 x 32. Macy's Garage manufactures that special chrome nut. Perhaps
they have the tap: macysgarage.com
If nothing else works, please contact me for aTR2/3 shift lever. I'm sure I
have one with good threads, although the chrome plating may be suspect.

Subject: [TR] thread size tr2 gear shift handle
My gear shift lever on my TR2 apparently has some issues.B B It is lackign a
threaded section,B I presume it hadB broken off long before I came into
possesion.
It's an early long door - and I seem to recall some dents in it and epoxying a
walnut shift handle on to it some 30 years ago.
a good Triumph friend, Hermann VB of the HVDA transmission conversion fame,
had an extra TR3 shift lever and he volunteered it to the cause.B Only issue,
B the threads are in rough shape.B Does anyone know the size tap I'd need.B
It appears to be a very fine thread 7/16th.dia.
If anyone has a tap and could chase it for me - even better.
Thanks
Chris
