turret retaining rings ?????

(1/2) > >>

wizard:
I recently made up some turret spacers for a customer and discovered that there seems to be different threads used on the turret rings.
On my Disco they are a standard 8mm, as i thought they all were. I dispatched the spacers only to be told they dont fit because threads on the customers turret rings are a lot finer than a standard 8mm pitch.

Has anyone ever come across this before ?  Could there be a difference between standard LR turret rings and after market ones ?

Regards
wizard  :twisted:

DiscoDan:
Hi ya.

As I understand it from my recent purchase of suspension parts the Genuine LR rings have the original UNF? finer thread, whereas aftermarket suppliers fit the more modern 8mm thread.

Cheers, Dan
