Hi all,

I need a castelated nut that goes on the wheel bearing axle (left rear) of an 850

Im in Brunswick - if anyone has one they dont mind parting with and lives near enough (pretty much anywhere in metro Melb...) please PM me or call me on 0431 034 700 and I will pick up tomorrow (Sunday)

Cheers, Bryan

It will last you until the day you die.

They can be had from any bolt shop, but I can't tell you what size the thread is.

I bought two front nuts from Coventrys a few months back, they were twice the quality of the new ones with the kits for 11 dollars per side.


edit....but that side would be the wrong thread direction I am thinking........I've got a right hand threaded nut over here in point cook..I think you are after a left hand thread

I got mine from northern mini a few months ago. They will not open till monday so that might not help you.

Where in Brunswick are you ? I am in Coburg and haven't seen your mini on the roads ( saw it at mini 50 though)

Yes ... need the pne with the opposite thread because i did a stupid thig removing it! Put th espanner on and tried to undo it... though S**T this is tight! So I tried a bit harder and stripped it! The thread on on the axle is still perfect but the nut stripped! Idiot!
