So what of the bolts.
For example; Some of the nuts with the big countersunk screws holding the front tow eyes (all 7/16"BSF threads) are large nuts( std BSF sized= British carriers?) and some smaller nuts, that fit an American sized 3/4" spanner (Canadian Ford?)
I have 5/16" BSF (threaded) nuts and bolts, which require American 1/2" tools.
These I believe are original Canadian (U.C.MkI*) Ford factory fasteners.
I am looking to hear from others that have come across these "hybrids".
