Default URGENT 2/11 - does anyone have 1 or 2 M12x1.5 nuts??

Does anyone have any metric hardware laying around? I am in desperate need of 2 (or even 1) M12x1.5 NUTS that I could have (I'll throw you a couple of bucks), or even borrow for tonight/tomorrow until I can replace them sun/mon for you)????

If so - PM me as I'll get notice on my phone while I'm out in the garage...



I am putting in my seats so I can go ice racing tomorrow and need those to secure the OEM belt hardware to the sparco brackets...

CURSE YOU HOME DEPOT FOR ONLY HAVING M12x1.75!!!! (I shoulda gone to Lowes before they closed but by the time I got home and tried these it was too late).

On the plus side, I have a fire extinguisher on a metal bracket now - I'm such a ricer j/k

Try OSH or Ace. I always buy my hardware from OSH, and they have a MUCH better selection than Home Depot.

Lowe's only has the 12x1.75 as well. I needed some to mount my rear sway and waited till I could get to the dealer until I realized that I had to unbolt that exact size on the caster adjustment eccentric to add the sway. D'oh.

I know it doesn't help you much, but if you're really desperate....

the Ace i work at didnt have them our supplier is hillman, and while our selection is much better than home depot or lowe's, i couldnt get 12x1.5

we had 12x1.25, and 12x1.75

went to a place called midstate nut and bolt.. they have every bolt you can imagine, but they were like $8 a piece. (was using them to mount engine to stand) i modified my engine stand instead

Are you talking about the seatbelt bolts?

If so they DIRECTLY cross over to a standard american size. I forget exactly which but they do I'm 100% on this.

Grab the one you have and go though the STD section. When I was putting harnesses into my old 951 I needed longer bolts and found this out.
