Can someone please tell me the size of the nut that goes on the end of the parking brake cable under the truck where the cable splits off to the wheels?

Thank you!

Do you happen to know the thread pitch?

1/2 '' in the wrench size

Thanks 4x41971SWB, I got a 5/16-24 heim joint so I could adapt to my disk brake conversion.
