Can anyone tell me the length and diameter of mamba/revolution wheel nuts?! Think these maybe pretty close to what i need.

Jellybean nuts are the right diameter @ 12mm but way too short i need about 27mm is give or take a little!

Also on a side note what thread is the mini wheel stud?! All helps with sourcing myself some new nuts for my speedy rims!

Thanks

The nuts I have for my speedy hotwires are 17.2mm diameter probably clearance for 11/16" and are 19mm long on the stepped part. They also need a washer this should be captive in the wheel but sometimes fall out. The washer is 4mm thick with said 11/16" hole and the outside diameter is tappered from 23.2mm to 21.9mm.
Thread is 3/8UNF
Overall length is 41mm
Hex head 13/16 hex x 22mm long
Hope this helps

As far as I know, there are at least two types of Revolution wheel nuts.

Here's a pic of the earlier ones. I had to get them made up when the panel shop threaded one of mine. I had four made and used one.

The later type are as offered for sale by all the Mini shops. They're no longer tapered.

[Why isn't my pic showing?] :?
