There are 2 types of rubber suspension donuts fitted to minis.
Early model donuts and late model

I believe early donuts are threaded 1/2 UNF?

Does anyone know what the metric donuts thread is?

My tool, the thread has become squashed and would like to run a die down it to fix.

Thanks

It is M14 x 2, just ran a tap through a new one and it only removed the paint in the thread.
