nut protective caps
John Stones - 11/5/22 at 09:30 AM

Have been looking to determine what bolt heads/nuts need covering
for IVA to be happy. Have not yet found a supplier of imperial thread
bolt/nut caps. My front suspension/steering rack is all imperial threads.
Can anyone help with where to get these. Thanks

Ebay may also be worth a look.

if you find some that are just a bit too big, you could secure them with a non setting adhesive. - blu-tack

Or put some metric ones in the oven at 90degs, they'll fit themselves an then freeze at that size

Need some of them but a bit larger. My missus keeps chewing my nuts off for spending time in the garage.

You sure you need bigger ones…
