Chipmunk. All the suspension and steering was castle nuts and cotter pins, except the upper balljoints to A arm that went from original rivets to grade 8 bolts and nuts with lock washers or jetnuts. Well, shocks were plain bolts...as were Ubolts holding lower A arms to crossmember.
Bolts from spindles to steering arms were 1/2 inch grade 8 with a long shoulder. Went to Fastenal and got close replacements should have waited overnight for McMaster-Carr. Replacement Moog stuff was hecho in china and not as good as original stuff.
