Re: The 1960 - 1966 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Factory Correct Restoration Thread

Winston is correct about the nut. Its more about sealing force than supporting weight since the weight is carried by the studs. Theres also support from the bracket to the dash. Lowes nuts are all wrong for this.

Guess I'll rethink this again. They are easy to find, however.

Thanks for the tip.
