Cracking deal: it's for nuts and bolts (7)
I believe the answer is:
details
'nuts and bolts' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are plural nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'cracking deal it's' is the wordplay.
'cracking' indicates an anagram.
'deal'+'its'='dealits'
'dealits' anagrammed gives 'DETAILS'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for details that I've seen before include "Small features" , "Minutiae" , "Particulars, small parts" .)
