Pinto Report post Posted 13 hours ago I was able to get about 200 single cap conchos for almost nothing. The problem is they did not have the caps. Does anoyone know if you can buy just the caps from somwhere? Thanks GUys/Gals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DieselTech Report post Posted 12 hours ago Can you post a pic of the conchos front & back. It will help the others help identify of what is needed & where to get them possibly. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am going to assume your concho's stem is also threaded so it is just a matter of finding the correct size screw for attachment. I would use a nut / screw thread gauge to determine the size needed. For the most common sizes I find the Chinese nut / screw gauge similar to ( https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007315188557.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.21.79e3ZdnIZdnIxM&algo_pvid=1aca4878-402f-4f94-9b21-d996454393f2&algo_exp_id=1aca4878-402f-4f94-9b21-d996454393f2-10&pdp_npi=4%40dis!CAD!23.62!12.99!!!16.13!8.87!%402103244817345326557723276e6b56!12000040228337903!sea!CA!3463193163!X&curPageLogUid=8y7oEuQnLAr1&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch|query_from%3A ) are good enough. If the conchos were made in the US then you will probably be looking at Imperial sizes. If they were made elsewhere chances are you are looking at metric sizes. From the photo it looks like a screw in the 3mil range which is about 1/8" would work.If you don't have a thread gauge take a concho to some hardware store as most have a gauge by the nuts and bolt display. kgg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DieselTech Report post Posted 2 hours ago Maybe @bruce johnson is familiar with this style of concho & knows what tools it takes to set them. Hopefully he can set us straight on this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
