dominator or commando kickstart domed nut

I have a 60 Dominator, and it has an unknown vintage of kickstart lever. I lost the pedal dome (also known as acorn) nut yesterday on a ride. The kickstart has been modified at some point in it's life to have the ball detent mod as used on the Mk3 Commando. It doesn't have the Mk3 kink.

My question is what is the thread size on a Commando kickstart pedal stub and is it the same as a Dominator part? I assume the Commando thread is 3/8 x 20. Does anyone know the corresponding Dominator if it is indeed different?

thanks,
Kevin

The Commando K/S dome nut (06-0550) is 3/8 - 24 (UNF)

Looks like I have a Dominator kickstarter lever, since mine appears to be a 20 TPI stud on the end of that lever. I measured the diameter across threads as .385". That's close to 3/8ths, perhaps close enough to the tolerance of the way I was measuring it. I'll take another look today.

Dominator K/S dome nut is possibly 04-0432 (thread unknown)?

20 tpi could be 3/8 BSF: http://www.britishfasteners.com/threads/bsf.html

Arrrgggh!!

Just got my nut in the mail today and it's the wrong thread. The shop I got it from had some bum info and the paperwork says that 04-0432 has been superseded by 70-1435. Wrong! That's a 26 TPI 3/8 fastener.

Whaddaya gonna do?!?

Back to the drawing board.

26 TPI may well be correct though and maybe your kickstart is non-standard?

Why not just order a 3/8 BSF nut?

Yup... probably will do that. Though, I don't think the superseded part is correct. Norvil still sells the 04-0432, and I don't think it's 26 TPI.
