Title: nuts, i need nuts, lots off them. ;D Post by: nicolas on June 10, 2009, 18:51:53 pm i am looking for a box off nuts that fit twopiece empi eightspokes or fivespokes.
they seem to have a english tread and not metric ( ::)) and the good news is these are the exact same nuts as skateboardtrucks have for the kingpins. a 14mm wrench fits, but the hole is 10mm.

What should they be torqued to?? Title: Re: nuts, i need nuts, lots off them. ;D Post by: Shubee2 (DSK) on June 11, 2009, 00:13:28 am I just bought some last week from the local hardware store.

Grade 8, 3/8" x 24 thread, locking. i guess those are the ones. kingpin nuts aren't that high, but they seem to work as i had similar ones on my wheels. but it seems a bit hard to get those here in Europe... i had a guy from Berner coming over to the house to see if he got that and he didn't. but it looks like i am good on the nuts, if someone has a lead on some in Belgium to get them within a week that could help as well.

They'll probably have to order them, but you should get them in a week. 3/8" UNF nuts.
