    Ground Control/Koni top nut size?

    Finally got my housings shortened and all of my Ground Control parts here and just realized that my Koni's don't have top nuts in the front.. Can anyone tell me what size they are? There are only a few specialty hardware places around here and I'd like to know what I'm looking for instead of carrying my shock around with me all over town. Can anyone help? It looks like it might be an M14 but what size threads?

    Did the Konis come in their original box?
    If so, the nuts should be in a baggie.

    The nut is a 14 x 1.5 nyloc.

      Yep.. I'm guessing they are supposed to be in the same baggie as the koni adjusters but they aren't.

      Thanks though!

        There should be two bags. One with the adjuster, and one with adapter hardware: two steel rings, bumpstop vents and the weird hex spanner nut thingy.

              mine were 14mm. I couldn't find any locally, so I called up Koni and they shipped me complete install kits for all 4 Koni's for free. You might give them a call if you can't find any local.
