As said, changing the hub is out of question because the car is not worth the cost of it.
That's why I asked.
Not at all.
It's the M9 thread of the front caliper guide pin.
I bought it for £500 and hasn't broken down yet.Meh... you asked a question, I gave you an answer. You don't have to like it! People supply all sorts of stuff for cars that would turn the manufacturer's hair grey overnight, and good luck suing some aftermarket kit manufacturer if it goes pear-shaped!
If it's not worth the cost of a new upright, that ICE of yours must have depreciated a lot...
. I'd need the pitch as well. If a "metric M9 coarse" was a standard fastener, I think the pitch would be between 1.25mm and 1.5mm. Assuming it's the lowest kind of "high tensile" you can get (Grade 8.8) and assembled dry, that 21 lbft figure isn't a mile off. I think it's fair to assume a low-ish grade, as it's only going into cast iron. I'm also assuming a finer pitch as a worst case for stripping.
. I appreciate they never break down, yet here we are, on a forum dedicated to fixing cars...
EV will never suffer any of these maintenance problems because they'll never reach such age.Bloody hell those ICEs depreciate!
Yes, "non standard" for anyone who's never maintained any car.
