McConnell rhino gearbox nut

[Deutzdx3]

Evening,

Having trouble finding the correct nut that holds the hub on the bottom of the gearbox on a 6ft McConnell rhino. Any one know if it’s specific size of nut. Standard castle m24 fine thread doesn’t seem to fit the gearbox. Bought a 1” unf which doesn’t fit either. Seems to be 25mm on the vernier. [emoji849][emoji848]

Cheers.

These guys sorted out a gearbox (actually two) for my rhino, I'm sure they'd do the nuts too. Lot cheaper than my local dealer too.

It’s not a Comer gearbox on them is it?

No, I think its ITL (JCB owned) and it's deliberately not generic.

Inch nut 14tpi sound right?
