Thread size for shock mount.

[spyug]

Can anyone tell me the thread sizing for the shock mount on my 82 Kat frame. I need to try and track down new "acorn" nuts as mine are chewed up. I could likely get them from the stealership or Bike Bandit but I'd rather speed up the process if I can find them locally.

I tried matching the nuts to the thread on some bolts in a couple of stores but nothing fit. I also tried the thread guages I have and nothing seems to line up.

Are they some kind of oddball sizing ?

I appreciate all assistance.

cheers,
