49 F1 Locking Pin Nut - For Spindle Bolt (King Pin)

[kketchmark]

I got my kings pins replaced but the new Spindle lock Bolt just has a normal nut. Would like to find a replacement Nut that has the closed end/Steering stop. Something like this that MAC sales.

Not sure if that is correct or not. Another note the new king pin kit didn't include the plug on bottom. Should I fill the end with silicon or just let it be open?

What is wrong with the ones that Mac's sells
You could cobber something up using threaded rod coupling nuts with the correct thread but the end would not be sealed.

I am not sure they are correct. I guess I would have to email/call them and ask what the thread is.

Can't you re-use the original nuts?

The guy that replaced the king pings tossed the old set in the trash. But i did find a set digging for some other parts. Go figure.
