Hi guys,
I cannot for the life of me figure out the size of this nut. It's a lock- nut (or jam nut) that butts up against the track rod end to prevent it going out of adjustment (on an old Jag XJ6 1985 vintage). No spanner I tried fitted it (metric/imperial/BSF/Whitworth) *nothing!* I finally got it off with adjustable spanners but due to the degree of difficulty it gave me I decided to measure it so I can find out exactly what it is supposed to be. It mics up at 0.863" across the flats give-or-take a couple of thou. If anyone can tell me what nominal size that is supposed be; what spanner is supposed to fit it, I'd be most grateful indeed!
cheers, Chris.
