I need to get a new nutto attach koni yellow to the strut mount, anyone know the thread pitch and everything? I'm gonna run a die and clean up the threads on the shaft while I'm at it
I had to take one of my struts all over town to all different hardware stores to find a bolt that would work....i couldnt find anything with the right tread pattern or pitch.
best bet is to get ahold of Koni, the bolt is less than a dolla.

the bolt is M14x1.50x30mm metric you probally have to special order it b/c M14's don't usually come at 1.50 thread pitch and is probally why you cant find em in stores... thats what c24s/c told me when I asked the same question. I ended up getting new ones from koni for free. hope this helps
Yeah. they're M14x1.5 which is fairly rare, but you can get them on the net or at any "fastener store" (call around in the yellow pages).
hehehehe.....you said shaft

I feel you on that one, it took me probably ten places before I found a hardware store that had them. It is a PITA.

Not to sound ignorant, but what happened to the original bolt that came with the kit? Did it strip or break or it was missing?
well I got the setup used, went to swap mounts before putting it all on and whoeve put them together last cross threaded it a bit, the nut was pretay messed up the strut looked salvagable (which is wasn't, tried to run a die over it... no dice, so Karo is gonna ship me out a new one ASAP.
