Not sure if this thread is in the right place or not. I buggered up the thread on the pinion shaft while removing the pinion gear to replace the front pinion bearing . it was pretty shot and I guess it kind of seized up a little more than usual. I do not want to replace the ring and pinion on it so I am hoping one of our members here might know what size the threads are so I can get a thread chaser and a new pinion nut. Is it fractional size or metric size. I know the nut socket size is a 12 point 36 MM but I have not been able to figure out what size the threads are. Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.

I guess we have the bastard child of Pinion gears cause i am finding the sizes and thread count/pitch on other pinion sizes but there is nothing on the 11.5". LOL

Just in case anyone ever needs to know -----The the thread size is 30mm x 2. I was able to buy a die and a die handle and get the threads on my pinion shaft straightened up and I used a new nut for it as well.
