Spindle nut is not what FoMoCo refers to them as.

There are TWO different types of these Rear Wheel Bearing Nuts. One is Dana 60 only thru 1968. The other is Dana 70 & 1969 and later Dana 60.

Lock washers are also required (should not use the old ones over again). Its tabs are designed to be folded over onto the sides of the hex nuts to secure them in place.

61-4252 .. Rear Wheel Bearing Nut-Dana 60 only / 1 13/16" thread - 2.38" Hex / Obsolete

MILLER OBSOLETE PARTS in Binghamton NY has 1 = 607-722-5371.

KLIMESH MOTOR SALES in Calmar IA has 3 = 563-562-3241.

MANDERBACH FORD in Temple PA has 5 = 610-929-3659.
-------------------------------------------------------
B6Y-4252-A .. Rear Wheel Bearing Nut / 2" -16 x 2.56" Hex / Obsolete

NOS PARTS LTD in Waxahachie TX has 5 = 972-937-2201.

====================================
61-1124 .. Lock Washer-Use with 61-4252 nut / 2 3/4" O.D. x 1 27/32" I.D. / Obsolete

FRIESEN FORD in Aurora NE has 4 = 402-694-3111.

NOS ONLY in San JOSE CA has 4 = Only number listed is 800-667-6659 (toll free-won't work from 'down under').

I called, left a message, asked for their regular number. Will edit it in when I hear back.

a HUGE thanks Bill...
i thought there was only two sizes...
there must have been millions of these nuts around at one time but now they seem a little rare...
i wonder what people have been using this side of the pond...
