Turret Rings
« on: May 25, 2007, 01:09:04 »
I have purchased a pair of new turret rings for the Disco

What size are the studs as I cannot find any nuts to fit?

Depends on who makes them. The standard ones are not metric (centainly not the ones that came with my first lift kit) where as the HD ones from paddocks are M8. Most new turret rings should come with new nuts anyway (atleast in my experiance).

I took my old ring to a local place called brabbin and rudd (fastner specialist), the sorted me out in about 1 minute.
