Randall,
Well I'll be an MG enthusiast.....!!!!
A 2BA nut fits the original perfectly. It does not fit the Moss replacement,
although the replacement is obviously an attempt to copy the 2BA pattern. If
I can find my 2BA die, I'm going to "correct" the thread. I'll let you know
how it turns out.
Thanks for the guidance.
I'm still wondering where the replacement unit is being manufactured. Anyone
from Moss out there lurking?

Well, I certainly wouldn't claim I can count the difference between 28
and 31 tpi, even under a glass, which is why I always try to use a
gauge. And I expect you're right, the new unit from Moss just has
different threads. It wouldn't be the first time they've made a change
like that without telling the consumer.
