Front Shackle Hardware measurement

I put on the factory shackles for a solid axle rig on my SAS'd 4runner. Problem is I am missing on of the nuts to the bolts. Does anyone know what size and thread pitch the factory shackles use for a nut?

Thanks!

on mine i think it might be m14-1.50. either way its definately a 14 and the pitch might have changed over the years.

Don't have my stock shackles any more, but yes, they may have been 1.50 thread. I have both those size taps (M14-1.25 and M14-1.50) in my drawer, so one of the other was used to clean up some threads on those shackle nuts.
