1949 Chevrolet 1/2 ton pick-up. What size it the nut that the foot operated starter rod from the inside of the truck locks down to the starter cross bar? I can turn my starter rod in both directions and don't see a lock down nut on the starter rod. It appears to be fine thread on the rod?

Probably 5/16 or 3/8...but...you have to take it off to put a nut on,so take it off and find a nut that fits it.if you don't have any,take the part to a parts store and match a nut.

I believe it is 1/2in. fine thread. Sounds like the threads are stripped if it keeps turning.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
