Hello!

Might be a longshot here considering the parts/production may vary, but I am trying to fix up an early 70s Shobud Maverick (the kind with the natural finish, not the brown wrap) and it came to me without the wing nuts to fasten the pedal rack to the legs. Would anybody happen to know the proper thread size and pitch to order replacement wing nuts for these things?

I know I should probably take it to a mom and pop hardware store to get it measured, but I'm just trying to save myself a trip. Anyone got any insight?

Thanks!

Probably a 1/4-20. But I would recommend getting these plastic knob type nuts. Hardware store should have them as well as Amazon. I find these easier to tighten and loosen that regular wing nuts. The are also easier to find if you drop one.
