I have a setup station for 1/8 nitro buggy that does toe and camber, managed to sher off one of the crapy soft ally threads that bolt it all together.
Went to my local nut&bolt place this morning and the closest thing he had to to it was a 4BA size, i would say its inbetween M3 and M4.
Its only a tad bit smaller than the 4BA with a very very slightly finer pitch.
Any ideas?

3.5mm?
Try one out of a switch/socket cover, these are 3.5mm.

Bugger, must type faster.

Yeah the ones out of light switches are 4BA apparently

It's possible I may be able to find some at work tomorrow, I'll check to see and let you know.

Sounds like M3.5, which is 3.5mm x 0.6mm pitch compared to 4ba which is 3.9mm x 0.66mm

Try model suppliers such as THIS

Thanks davie i'll give that a try.

For reference:

As already said its probably M3.5 x 0.6 pitch.

I thought all electrical stuff was still 4BA? Or have they finally made the change to metric?

Sorry checked but no luck, have M2,2.5,3 & 4 but not 3.5

Cheers,

Dave

Thanks anyway
