I now am uncertain the spot welded cage nut fasteners were factory installed? I do know the previous owner assembled the truck from at least one donor ‘37 and that the front end had at least some minor collision damage sometime during its previous road life. So, I need to qualify my previous statement about the cage nuts by saying this truck had them, whether they were/are factory correct or not is questionable. I will also agree, the clip installation feature would be a whole lot easier than wrestling with bolts and nuts, especially with the top end fastening!
