NumberDummy, if you please

I would like to replace the lug nuts on my '72 f250 2wd. Wheels are 8 lug. As you know, I prefer to use nos oem parts. Does Ford still make these? If so, could you post the part number? If not, please list any available.

One last thing, were these lug nuts originally painted or plated? Mine are currently painted black (by the PO). I doubt that was how they came from the factory.

Thanks for all your help!

Cheers,

John

Cadium plated as original, but I'm not sure what the latest lug nut finish is...could be black.

6W7Z-1012-AA (replaced: B-1012, B-1012-A, C0AZ-1012-A (what the '64/72 catalog calls for), C9AZ-1012-A, E6DZ-1012-A (black-same as Taurus/Sable), D8AZ-1012-A) .. Lug Nut-1/2" -20 / Available from Ford.

MSRP each: $4.48 // PARTSGUYED.COM price each: $3.23.

Still want genuine Ford? Prolly not at this price...back in the 1960's, they were 75 cents each.

I did locate 69 COAZ-1012-A's if you're interested, but these same lug nuts were used beginning in 1932 on a gazillion cars/trucks, so finding plenty in a boneyard will be a snap.

Crown Vic's/Mercury Grand Marquis/Lincoln Town Cars used the same thru at least 1991. F150's & Bronco's thru 1996.

NumberDummy,

Thanks for the information. Looks like i'm going to the wreckers, cause there is no way I'm paying $3.23 for one - and I need 32!

I just thought I'd spruce up the old girl a little bit... Yikes!

They sure went through a lot of part number changes over the years, too.

Cheers John

This is nothing, the 240/300 exhaust manifold part number was updated EIGHT times between 1965/83.

Ford is in-famous for replacing (updating) 10's or 1000's of part numbers EVERY YEAR!

Keeping track of all these number changes was...and still is...a PITA.
