Default what size threaded rod to use to pull damper back on?
I have read that it's best to use a threaded rod and a nut to pull the damper back on but what size is it?

I'm pretty sure it is an M16x2.0...you should try to get your hands on a thrust washer if you can too. You'll get some serious metal-on-metal grinding otherwise...

Yes...this is correct...not the M16x1.5 as stated above. I'll change that so it doesn't screw anyone else up.
