Are the trailing arm hex nuts lock-nuts or just regular M14x1.5? The ones I took off my car appear to be lock-nuts but I do not know if they are original.
Thx. |

The originals were unusual. They were certainly not a standard featureless nut. They has a contact surface on one end and a slot cut toward the threads on the other end. They are a locking nut in that they will not just spin down a threaded shaft without resistance. They require effort to thread onto the pivot shaft from about 1/2 depth on. |
