propshaft nuts

[dwayne]

need a bit of advice here please guys...when i was taking the prop off i rounded one of the 4 nuts at the gearbox end (v160). would any nut that fits do the job or do i need to get the originals, i'm guessing i need to change all 4 if i use something else to keep the weight balanced?

cheers

thanks for fast reply mate, i'll get them from there then. i didnt think i'd get anything close to it from eurofasteners cos they have a shoulder at the end and they're a lot thinner than the average nut

cheers

I can get you K nuts in the right size and thread if you want. If anything they are superior to stock. They are aerospace quality nuts.
