These are the front hub nuts which were on my car, but they don't seem to fit. Are they the wrong nuts or am I missing something to take the space?

The nut in the second picture sure looks like the nuts that secure the steering arms (2 required). The steering arm nuts have a smaller hole than the nut that goes on the front end spindle part.

Wrong nut? - tough to tell - -the link is to a pic of Bratton's nut

I think Rusty's right -and I think the correct nut is taller

I like the nuts that Casey shows. They have 4 sets of grooves instead of 3, makes for a more fine tuning of the adjustment.

Been thinking about this and I'm thinking those are model T spindle nuts.

It sounds like I need new nuts. Thank you.
