Was looking at the rear axel castle nuts and while they are OK thought it might be wise to replace.

Part number 901 332 806 00 in PET does not show the size or thread pitch. At $15+ from some places I thought I would see if it were available from McMaster Carr.

Can measure the size and height but no clue on the thread.

Don't replace them unless you have to, they are a huge pain in the butt. Use the real parts, a substitute is not worth taking a chance on.
