Back story, after 4 weeks of buying nuts, to no avail, I humbled myself and called my son!

Telling him of my problem, he said "is it metric?" I said, "It's a 1972 GMC jimmy, how could it be metric" so I gave him the OD, and pitch, he did some math, and came up with M7x1.

I said thank you, wish I had called you sooner, instead of wasting 40.00 in nuts, he said

At the cost of my engineering degree, you are way ahead.lol
