Track rod end nylocs
rb968 - 3/8/10 at 10:55 PM

I have a sierra rack, sierra uprights and the track rod ends I assume are ford? One has a nyloc and the other had (before I misplaced it) a castle nut. They appear to be an M10 fine thread but can anyone tell me exactly what thread I need? 1.00 or 1.25 pitch? None locally anywhere so will need to order via the wonders of ebay.

I can post a picture tomorrow if that helps.

Can anyone help with this or identify the track rod end used on Sierra rack provided by MK?

They are M10.

take the track rod to a local toolery/ironmonger/fasterner supplier and see if they can identify the thread with a bolt and then purchase a nut?

measure the pitch, then look online, or google, to get the correct size, which may well be something like M10 x 1, or 1.12, or 1.5, or it may even be 3/8 unf

Anyway, with you calipers (you have got some, havent you?) measure the diameter AND the pitch and you can then get the info you need
