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

Do you have a link to the nut on eBay? I need one also

For what it's worth, he is Modelt2001 on ebay.

5/8 -18 doesn’t work…..I bought some on EBay……the 16 isn’t available there

Search is hex panel nut

Now that I know the correct name….I still can’t find 5/8-16….panel hex nut….Grainger doesn’t have any.

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

Maybe this helps

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

I just talked to Steve Lang, he recommended cutting down a steering wheel nut because it’s 5/8 -16….so I ordered a steel one
