nut size

[garvey76]

:)HI ALL
Just a quick one.
the small plastic original nuts that hold the wheels on have popped off my landing gear.
never thought they were much good, is there any thing i can replace them with thats easy and a straight fit. can i get a normal nut to go on and what size will it be?
cheers

I took a small piece of plastic tube (from a model "spru") and drilled a small hole in the end. It will self tap onto the landing gear.

I later replaced with some small self locking nuts. DuraTrax 4-40 Locknut with Nylon threads.

Shrink wrap works good too.

Another vote for the 4-40 DuraTrax. You can see part numbers, etc in the photo attached to this thread I made awhile back:
