Spindle nut mystery Dana 60

Post by SteveH »

I am having trouble with something simple. You’d think I could find something as common as the Spindle nut washer for my 66 W200 pretty easily online. No dice.
I’ve seen what seems like every picture of every other spindle nut washer,...but not the one I’m needing.
Everyone wants to sell me the “new” style lock nuts for the rear.
I don’t want that.
i just want a useable spindle nut washer with the tabs you bend over to finish getting the rear together on my truck.
One of mine has the inner locating/locking tab wiped out.
It is 1 13/16’S ID. The OD is hard to come up with because the lock tabs you bend over are not spaced right to measure across. But the ID is one and thirteen sixteenth’s inch across.

Is there a spicer/Dana/Dodge/Dorman/NAPA part number for this?

I had that problem once, about 30 yrs ago. Just got out the oxy acetylene with a small tip, welded on a new tab and dressed with a dremel grinder. Been on there ever since, no issues.
