Bilstein B14 Rear Shock Thread Size?

[RossybB]

Hi,

I bought a new kit recently for my 182 cup, but the rear shocks didn't come with a top nut. The instructions say to use the original rear top mount/bush, but the issue is the nylon nut from the old original shocks I had on the car is a different thread size!

It looks as though the billy thread is finer, does anyone know what size nut/thread pitch I need for the billy rear shocks?

Tried to search and google but no joy... maybe I'll drop Bilstein an email if no one on here knows.

Cheers

Apparently it's an M9 1mm size in case anyone needs to know in future.

Just came to fit mine and found this out, can you confirm it's an M9 nut 1mm pitch?

Hi mate, trying to remember but 95% sure it is. Think I got a pair of M9 nuts from a cycle shop as they tend to fit on to bike wheel hubs so they have them on the shelf.

Don't know why they didn't supply them with the coilovers tho!
