I checked gm part wiki and found you likely need part number 379656 (see attached image)
It is a 27/32-20 thread
1946 to 1958 all 3/4 and 1 ton use the same nut

And it looks like O’Reilly auto parts has them for $10 in California
But nothing beats original
I bet you could find it for nothing in a local junk yard
