Up here in the Antipodes I look with envy upon the selection of goods on offer in America and the prices! Unreal to me so I know about parts in rural areas as most of my mates live far from 'civilisation'.
I trust nothing when it comes to parts and measure six ways to Sunday and back again.

Example a friend bought a track adjuster plug for his digger a couple of weeks ago as the ball was stuck and it was leaking grease. Luckily I have trained him well because he thought the new one felt wrong when he went to screw it in. It was Metric thread not UNF and was supplied by the NZ franchise dealer. Luckily I was able to repair the original.

Note* We are officially Metric but have a healthy mix of Metric and Imperial so it is second nature to carry a 6-inch scale, a verynear and some thread gauges just to be sure be sure.
