Re: Alfetta metric thread query

["Graham&Joan Hilder" <graham.joan@domain.elided>]

Many thanks to John, in Alfa-digest V8 #49, and to other Alfisti who replied
off-digest, for the answers to my Alfetta suspension thread-specification
queries.  Good, now we can finish off this job.

Best regards,
Graham, N.Z.

In AD8-0039 Graham Hilder asks about the respective threads used on (a) the
front caster rod nuts, and (b) the lower wishbone inner pivot nuts of his
Alfetta.....   The front caster rod nut is 12 mm x 1.5 mm, the same size as
Alfa lug nuts, and....it is used in many earlier applications such as the
outer end of upper wishbone to ball joint on 105/115 cars.
The lower wishbone inner pivot nut........appeared to be 12 mm x 1.25 mm on
my thread gauge.

......I would like to enter a side plea for on-digest replies to even
obscure questions which deal with facts or methods (no opinions of GM,
necessarily).The digest is an archive-of-record which many may search in the
future for obscure but vital information. Much trivia and much incorrect
information is entered, but posting of even trivial obscure details could
increase the possibility of somebody, someday, being able to find out
something he (or she) needs to know.

 Soapbox mode off,

 John H.
