Hello guys.
I nnes some sleeved nuts for the top mounts. What size thread are they if anyone knows? I've done a few quick searches. I'm guessing they are m12 x1.25p?
Many thanks.

You can find most thread sizes through realoem, the only time they would be different is if you were fitting aftermarket cheap parts

Thanks danthe. The top mounts came with m12x1.5 sleeved nuts and they don't fit my b8 shocks so I'm a tad stumped.

Doesn't sound too fun.
I ended up trailing around all my local shops including a bearing supplier and a specialist fixing supplier. No one could sort me out.
I've ended up getting some top hats machined and I'm using the nylock nuts that came with the shocks.
Looks like it will work fine.
You can purchase m12 x 1.25 threaded sleeve nuts off of ebay and online if you google search but they are a right rip off.
and I have no idea iff the sleeve will be the right dia.
Hope you get sorted man

They came on the shocks but I'm 95% sure they are m12 x 1.25p
