Tried both CarQuest and NAPA. CQ had a box of metric spindle nuts for FWD but no SAE and nothing that resembled my companion flange/yoke nut. NAPA here is usually very helpful but they stock only 7/8x14. Chevy dealership was less than helpful also. Tried several auto parts, looked on ebay, craigs list etc. No Luck so far and I can't use the old one as the threads were galled when it was removed or maybe were pulled when it was torqued to 240 ft. lb originally.
Can anyone identify the rear end beyond 10 bolt? It might help if I could give parts people the rear end identification. 58 Chevy half-ton 10 bolt isn't too helpful according to them.
Thanks for the suggestions.
