I can see that the inner nut doesn't (still) thread all the way into the housing - the nut locks up with a couple of threads left. I could run through the housing IF I can track down the right one. It appears to be close to 1.25"-24.......but I have no good way to measure the diameter and thread pitch. Anyone know?

Thanks!
In doubt, give Berts a call and see what he has for originals in stock. How much could it be for a piece of mind that you are using the "good stuff".
