60 series tie rod threads

Post by Clanky »

Anyone know what thread the 60 series tierods and drag link joints are where they screw into the tube.
They measure 22.8 x 1.5pitch.
Checking the charts it could go either M22 x 1.5 or a UNF 5/8 x 14.5tpi.

I am backing metric but I want to confirm as the M22 max dia is 22.0mm whereas the 5/8 is 22.8mm.
Could be due to the thread being rolled.

Had a look in the bible and cant locate the info

Can anyone confirm?
