    Lock Nuts

    Does anyone have the sizes for the lock nuts for the various suspension componants (Control Arms, Trailing Arms, Tie-Rods, etc...)? I am putting in an order with McMaster-Carr and I want to build an inventory so I'm not caught without some in a pinch.

    Check the Realoem site. You can find most of the sizes there.

      Inventory

      Always include some universal locknuts. They are also called old locknuts with some yellow 3M glue.
