I have a 14 and a 16 TPI gage and it's between those two. Since a 12M X 1.5 die runs all the way down the threads, albeit loosely, and a 10M X 1.5 tap goes all the way through the slotted nut, again very loose, I think that it's metric. The diameter measures 10.97 MM with calipers and converted. I have not been able to find a 11M X 1.5 nut, let alone a slotted one. I have three of them but need three more.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Charlie </div><div><br></div><hr id="zwchr"><div style="color:#000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;"><b>From: </b>"Harold Manifold" <manifold@telus.net><br><b>To: </b>"Charles Schott" <schottc@knology.net>, "Michael Salter" <michaelsalter@gmail.com><br><b>Cc: </b>"Healeys" <healeys@autox.team.net><br><b>Sent: </b>Friday, January 3, 2020 6:27:29 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>RE: [Healeys] Tie Rod End Slotted Nuts<br><div><br></div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="FONT-SIZE: small; FONT-FAMILY: comic sans ms,sans-serif">If your car is
prior to C.E.#228931 the castellated nuts for the original side and center rod
ends will be part #2K3996 which I think is 7/16" BSF, (I don't have one to hand
to check) however many of these ball joints have been replaced with the
later UNF style over the years and they use FNZ307 7/16" UNF.</div>
