Default Thread size on tie rod ends.
I need to know the correct thread size of the model A tie rods. I have checked and one post says 11/16x 18, another says 11/16x 24. Left, and right.

Please someone help before I buy the wrong tap and die.

Thanks,

jim

To complete this sketch, what is the thread size on the tie rod end? By the way, I fixed the sketch to indicate the tie rod has 11/16 x 24 threads.

Not to start a war Bob, I think the ROD/SHAFT is 11/16 not the coupling plug

Coupling plug is larger. Not what I ask. But thanks for the input.

Thanks,

Thanks all for letting me know about my error. I fixed the sketch. So what is the thread size of the plug? I am guessing, but I think it has 60 threads per inch.
