    Hey all hope you are having a great new year. My mav was recently vandalized and I need a new steering wheel nut from one of you or to purchase a nut from hardware store/auto parts store. I know from research that diameter is 5/8 but a worker I contacted at autozone said he needs to know thread size. Thanks
