I am rebuilding a 1959 Morgan and the one of the front stub axles has the thread stripped.
It is 5/8” BSF currently.
I am thinking of filing it to its root dia which should be about 13.55mm.
Retapping it Metric 14 x 1.5mm.
A chart on the net shows a min dia for this at 13.73mm.
Any thoughts on this.
A new one would be about $1k. as it’s part of the sliding pillar suspension.
