1985 XJS grease nipple thread size

Can anyone tell me what thread size the grease nipples are on the rear
suspension, please?
It has to be imperial, either BSP or UNF or UNC, and the thread size 1/8 or 3/16 or 1/4 I guess. Thanks in advance
Greg

I really wanna say 1/4-28 but I can't swear that's correct.

Cheers

Same here.

I looked at a 1/4 bolt, and that looked too big.

I have a box of grease nipples and just grab what I need when I need, and whatever fits, stays there.
