anyone have a 5/8" unf left hand tap to borrow or sell?

i need one so i can get my axle on, seems no-one has any...

tried my usual www.tapdie.co.uk who are usually very cheap and good quality taps and service, but they don't have any...



its a long shot, i know...

speedway has them here.

Wrong side of the pond, but Speedway Motors has great service and may be worth checking out.

F**KING PAYPAL!

I've got 4 card details on there, new cards the bank have sent me for the same account, new card arrive (old one expired 31st march) and i can't add the new card or remove the details of the old one because i can only add 4 cards

sent the details for the one thats just expired and it seems to have accepted it... only a few minutes out i guess. its not going to bounce back is it? am i right in thinking that paypal debit my card and authorise it when i click pay? its not sent to the seller to then debit tomorrow is it?

The ones Speedway list as SAE are what you refer to as UNF. A course thread tap would be called UNC. These are the taps used for rod ends (or heims, or rose joints).

Britain and the US.....two countries separated by a common language....

lol threads confuse the hell out of me... i'm trying to work out a thread on the master cylinder mounts on my car (studs welded to the chassis, and i can't for the life of me work out what thread they are so i can get the nuts for them. and of course i can't take the chassis anywhere for someone to work it out for me, and i've got thread gauges, but its not on there.
