Kay is a project and I'd heard so many wooses moaning about the hub nuts, I wanted to see what all those threads moaning about them was all about. So I have already loosened them.... and my moaning was appended to one of those threads :)

So I now need 2 new hub nuts!

.

The 2000ish Honda Civic axle nut appears to be the same size and thread pitch. Might be easier to source locally for you, for me it sure is. I have yet to test it though.
 
Sounds like taking short cuts is pointless then.

I suspect a universal truth in that - I've always found with heavy car work that taking a shortcut always takes LONGER as you have to unpick and do it properly.

Plan the time appropriately, get the coffee on and take your time.
 
If you have the facilities, I highly recommend dropping the engine and box (including the IRD).
When I took my lump out. It gave me easy access to replace additional items such as brake lines etc.
