Power Steering Nut!!!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am having problems finding a 9/16 nut for my power steering pump. I know they look like half the height of a normal 9/16 nut. Been to the hardware store and looked on the web.

thanks

Are you talking about the two that are at the rag joint? They are fine thread too....I'm missing one too! Have you looked at Lowes? They have a pretty good nut and bolt selction.

Grab your phone book and look up "Bolts & Nuts" in the yellow pages. They have all kinds of odd stuff.

logical first place to go would be an autoparts store// if they have a help section go there near steering parts next place to go would be the counter and ask for a nut for a power steering pump// after that i'd go to an oldtime friendly junkyard same deal ask for a power steering pump nut

That half thickness nut is called a "jam nut" Most likely need to find a "nuts and bolt" store like was suggested.

Look for an Automotive fasteners store.We get our nuts and bolts for work from them because they carry all kinds but they specialize in auto stuff.
