Quick question r.e. castle nuts...
The castle nuts for the LCA balljoints and the ones for outer tie rod ends: Do they have the same thread size/pitch?

I think the sizes are different when I replaced mine. Let me go check


Ok the tie rod ends are more so of a goldish color nuts. The LCA ball joint castle nut is black, also it is bigger.

UPDATE:

The LCA balljoint, strut bolts, and tie rod adjustment nuts all have the same thread size and pitch.

In case anyone cares.

What are? The tie rod end and LCA balljoint may have the same socket size, but they definitely have different thread sizes.
