Long story short- Need to buy a nut asap and I'm at work so i cant measure it. I'd orderd one from JP monday, and it said in stock, looked up tracking today and now it says it wont ship for 11-14 days, no good. So i need to order one from Mcmaster or pick one up from the hardware store today. Anyone know the thread size? Thanks guys. Googling I can only find the socket size needed, not the actual thread size.
Shovelhead pulley nut thread size?

I'm 90% sure its 7/8-14.
IDK if it was just mine, but I had to get a handful of nuts to find one that would spin on freely. I have a colony part that wouldn't thread on - felt like it was mixing thread pitches. I then bought 4 different nuts and only one of them would spin on. Not trying to gorilla a nut onto fine threads on a sprocket shaft!

Note the turned area on Dragstews nut. That acts like a washer to keep from leaving nut marks on the pulley. You could chuck a plain nut in a lathe for a similar result.
I'd call belt drive vendors. If it's no-shit "need it now" you can get it overnighted or other fast shipment. It's kind of an odd duck for a hardware supplier.Comment
