M14x1.5 sounds right. My thread chasers only go up to 12mm
 
Speaking of ^^^, this might be a good place to ask this: If one was looking to build a set of taps and dies for a LC, what would be needed outside of the standard 10-ish piece set? Anybody have a good list going? I've lent out and/or lost or broken the majority of what I had, including the odd pitches that don't come in sets.
 
Definitely M14 x 1.5. I just ordered one. I'm chasing the fixed nut that holds the bolt for the tow hook. I can't imagine there is anything bigger than that on the truck but I have been known to make mistakes, from time to time.

Except that this doesn't make sense for 90119-14097. This part number would make it a M40 bolt. We know it is M14. And the length is wrong too. Hmm. They must have changed the code?

did that size tap/die work for you?

i also want to clean up the captive nut threads and bolt/nut that hold a pintle hook to my 80 series. my tap/die kit and thread repair kit top out at M12
