Gearbox studs.

Post by NaughtyNetley »

Morning, I have had the lower gearbox mounting nut come loose from my '59 G3 and it has made a break for freedom. Could anyone tell me the size please?

And remember there should be NO washers used with this stud, the nuts wind up to the engine plates. If washers are used with a full nut it fouls the inside of the centre stand lug.
