359218-S2 - Nut retainer - 5/16" - 24



A fella on eBay sells two reproductions for $18
61 62 63 64 65 66 67 Ford rear deck lid hinge 5/16-24 cage nuts NORS 359218-S2 | eBay

I believe an alternate part number is 377998-S - if so AMK products shows they have a limited quantity of these and it says they are NOS. I have not tried these myself so can't say for certain but they do look like the others.

Yep that looks them. But at that price I’ll wait til one shows up in the junk yard which happens way to frequently around.

Roland....just get a 5/16" cage nut. I'm sure that you can make those work, and they'll cost you 50 cents. You might have to file the hole square a little, but you can insert them from above or underneath. If you have a Fastenal, bolt house or other source, they should be easy to find...and if you get frustrated let me know and I'll send you a pair for nothing. I hate to see hoarders take advantage of people who just want to get their truck back together....

thanks yeah I sourced some from McMaster today and I’ll make a cage to hold them this weekend. Thanks for the offer though and I’m with you. Hoarders suck.
