Where to Buy 10mm x 1mm Half Nuts?
Hi all,
The flexi's that came with my kit (bought parially from someone else then taken apart) seem to be missing there half nuts, which is a little
annoying
So does anyone know where i can get some 10mm fine (1mm) half nuts?? Namrick dont seem to have any listed in there catalogue.
It is 10mm x 1mm for sierra flexi's isnt it?

If you have trouble finding some how about using a couple of brake pipe nuts cut to size?

Ford sell thin m10*1mm for brakefittings.
Wouldn`t calll it half size but it is much thinner than a standard m10.

Thanks for the info, wouldnt have thought about going to Ford DOH!
Means another trip to Frod spares dept....
Me: "Do you have any m10 x 1mm nuts for brake fittings?"
Parts Dept: "What reg is the car its for"
Me: "I dont have one its for my kit car, but if you look under sierra you should be able to find it"
Parts Dept: "Im sorry sir ill need a reg to look up on the computer"
gggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
PS so thanks owelly i might look at you suggestion just to save my blood presure
edit - but might have to look elsewhere to save my wallet from a bit of a bashing

Sounds fairly reasonable, bound to be cheaper than paying most other places...
