I am trying to spec out the 7 bolts that hold the swivel ball to the axle flange. I believe they are M10 1.5. I need to clean out the inner threads on the axle flange before reassembling. I can't conclusively match them up with any of those hardware store testers, so I don't know what size tap to buy for cleaning the threads on the flange. Some of the first, narrower starting threads are not quite perfect. In fact, at the store, the 7/16 thread tester seemed better than the M10. Go figure! The Rave manual doesn't say exactly. Anyone know for certain what the exact size is?

Most LR stuff is coarse, which would be 1.5 pitch on M10. I probably have an extra bolt to check at home.
