NY116041L Nut Thread

Hey,

I fitted the rear QT diff guard today. Talk about a complete PIA!!! Nothing lined up, I ended up using the angle grinder and a hammer to shape the guard and still it was a real PIA to get in place!!

In taking off one of the top nuts for the guard bracket I ended up with it stuck in the socket and getting it out damaged the thread.

From looking on the web the nut Number is NY116041L

But does anybody know the thread for the nut, from what I can tell its a M16 nyloc nut but I can't find the threat type. I was hoping I may be able to find some cheaper and local rather than the £3.00 per nut plus £4.00 postage!!

Thanks

It's the yellow arrowed nut on a 2005 rear diff.

The ring of nuts that hold the diff into the axle casing are usually 3/8" UNF.

That part number does resolve to an M16 nyloc nut though, so not sure you have the right part number. Unless they started using M16 studs to hold the diffs in on later models?

NY - Nut, nyloc
1 - Metric
16 - M16

Thanks Retroanaconda,

The part number may well be wrong. I want sure what the nut would be classed as and thats the closed I could find on the web. I've no idea how to find part number properly!! Something I'm sure I'll learn over time!! lol

I've tried all the M16 bolts I have in the nut but the threat on them is to coarse to fit or maybe they just were the wrong size!!

Many thanks, I'll have a hunt for them then

M16 nuts would normally have a head size for a 24mm spanner , m16 is also tow ball bolt size

as said 3/8 unf , so would be 9/16 spanner size or a 14mm spanner would be tight fit

Thanks all,

I think I was getting a bit confused with sizes.

Munch90, that's sounds right for the sock size I used. Makes sense now

Cheers Martin, I think I'll head out a grab a few.
