Just for anyone in the future the crank thread is 18x1.5 LH thread...Got a die to clean up the threads and a new nut and good to go.

I might be able to help ya out.  I've got a spare bottom end with no side covers somewhere in the garage.  I'll check it tonight to see if that nut is on it.

Looking to find the thread size of the nut that threads on the crankshaft on the clutch cover side...It's the nut that holds the 2 drive gears in place on the crankshaft(shaft with the slot to drive the waterpump as well.

Mine had backed off/fell off and they are discontinued from Suzuki.It's a left hand thread..If anyone knows where to purchase one let me know or if anyone knows the thread size so I can try to locate one from another source would be great...Plus I need the thread specs to purchase a die to clean up the threads on the crankshaft as well.

Any info is appreciated :)
