    I need help finding a certain nut.

    Hey

    Im ALMOST done with the M50 swap, but I cant find ANY nut to fit on the E28 motor mount. The bottom stud on the mount is an easy size, I have the nut for that, but the top stud for the mount is like a weird medium thread or something, can someone PLEASE direct me to where they would have these nuts.

    Thanks!

    Are you talking about the hexagonal E28 mounts? They're threaded the same on the bottom as they are on top. Maybe you need to chase the stud with a die. It's possible the threads got distorted as you were lowering the engine onto the mounts.

      No the Green mounts, And this was before we even tried to put them on. Its odd, the size on the bottom was different from the size on the top. Bottom size was M10x1.5 top size Im pretty sure was M11x1.5 or 1.35, something around that. Either way, i found out that the nuts are pretty hard to find so I took care of the problem by re threading the top studs to M10x1.5, this im pretty sure will take care of the problem.
