Does anyone know what the thread size is for the nyloc Tie Bar nut?

I want to grab 2 before the weekend, and I'm hoping somewhere local (like a hardware store) has some.

I think they are 5/16? maybe not.. they are a wierd nut - no one has the 'correct' ones as the thread size is different to the nut.

Alot of the stuff you can buy these days uses metric hex bar with imperial thread which is :?

I spent ages trying to find some - I ended up putting on new tie rods

It is 7/16 UNF nyloc.
It's the same size as the four on the rear subframe that hold the rubber mounts/bushes.
The nuts on the ball joints are 7/16 too, though not nylocs.
:D
