I'm in need of the lock nut also.
The nut needed is a lock nut & is the same thread for all of the steering wheel nuts 5/8" x 16 thread (not a standard size). It may be the same size as the Drive Shaft Castle nut. I'm going to check that out. If not grind down a steering wheel nut
The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

For what it's worth, he is Modelt2001 on ebay.
Just a 20 year old who listens to 40 year old music, works on 75 year old airplanes and drives 100 year old cars.
The past is only simple because hindsight is 20/20.

Have you tried McMaster-Carr Industrial supply in Atlanta? Opps. Just looked. They don't have them, either.

That's a very odd thread. You are lucky to find anything usable even with modification needed.
