I'm looking for the large nuts that are on the each end of the upper control arm shafts. I've looked at Paragon, and Zip but it seems like they only sell the complete rebuild kits. Anyone know where I can get them individually? Grease nipple, bushing and nut in one.
Thanks.

Ace hardware has a large selection.

Thanks John, but these are very specialized for the old Vette suspensions. Not a hardware store item.

Kanter Auto looks like they sell just the bushings

Let me know if you still need some. I may have a few but would need to do some digging.

Good suggestion of Kanter - any solid axle upper bushing should work I believe.

Check street rod magazines for early chevy parts ads.
Same nuts I believe.

Check with DZAuto. He is the master of Chevrolet frontends. He may have what you are looking for.

Post a want ad on https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/ HAMB since these are the same part as on 49 to 54 passenger cars. Likely someone will have some lying around and you avoid the corvette part price surcharge. That’s where I found my dropped passenger car spindles to drop my C1 front end and by, were they inexpensive.

Thanks guys. Yes I need the two upper inner. They are big nuts with the bushings and 90* grease nipples on them. Mine are all Bubba buggered. I'm getting everything ready for a rebuild. . Let me know the shipping and any other costs in a PM. thanks.
