Hi guys,

Does anyone know what the thread size is of the thread of the transit drop links we use on the top of the front struts. The bolt side .

M18 x 1.5 - off the top of my head!

I may be wrong

Hi ya,

I think that's the thread of the shift part, it's the bolt side I am after 😁

Don't know for sure - if you buy one (drag link) it should come with a nut shouldn't it?

Hi ya,

The nut was tight when my car was trailered to have work done and its gone lol

I dont have my car any more, but is this the nut that goes on the taper washer, into the axle ?

If so, im pretty sure its 12x1.5

Yeah that's one. Hope it is as I should have some of them, just hoping it wasn't a weird size lol

If I'm undestanding that you had the car trailered away for some work. Nut present and tight whenthe car left. When the car returned the nut was missing?

If that's the case whoever did the work must have removed the nut and not replaced it.

Whoever did the work should therefore be responsible for owning up and replacing the nut!


Please shout me back down if I've misunderstood your post.

Hi ya,

It wasn't tight as I hadn't done the camber etc and completely forgot about it lol
