M8x1 is metric fine for an 8mm od a 1mm pitch is reasonably fine as I said before ill check it 2mro with a thread guage.

I have just checked the drawing for the steering arm and it looks like its M10x1 however could do with the part number for the arm to make double sure - anyone got the part number handy?
