Nuts for spring shackle bolts

Post by allsupj »

Does anyone know of a source for the 3/4-16 flexlock nuts that go on the spring bolts? If not can you suggest a replacement type of nut. Thanks, Jon

Tried them. I guess it is kind of an old style fastener. Most of the flexlocks that I find are the light variety. The old ones are very heavy duty.
