Defender Wheel Carrier (Rear Door) Thread / Nuts?
Hi All,
I have bought and fitted a second hand Rear door Wheel Carrier for my 110 Defender Td5.
However I can't work out what Nuts I need to secure the wheel on.......
I have tried my 110 wheel nuts and my wife Discovery ones...... The thread on the carrier looks much finer than either of the ones i have tried but about the same diameter......
Your help to identify what I need and where i can get some would be appreciated....
Thanks in advance.

You might find its off a series motor?
Im not sure if different threads but guessing.
The early series 2 were smaller studs, s3 went to larger ones, but not sure if same thread as 90/110/defender models?

series 3s are the same thread as defender,d1,rrc

Thanks James I wasnt sure

If you measure the outside diameter and the thread pitch someone my be able to help?

JAKtheLandy · Dec 26, 2015

it is about 15.9mm or 0.6259843" and is about 15 or 16 threads per inch......

The first thread is knackered on that stud. You won't get any nut to fit it. It needs a die running down it.

A thought has just crossed my mind shocking I know!
Have you looked at the other end of the stud in case it has been replaced with a bolt?

JAKtheLandy · Dec 26, 2015

Good point Lynall, no i haven't, thank you.
Doey68, Yes i had thought that but nuts i have won't give it a look.....

Standard thread is M16 x 1.5 from memory, but not sure that even helps in this case.
