Took my steering apart to put on new tre's and the jam nut is screwed up. It's a rusty's offroad tie rod (mistake) and the jam nut is 11/16-18 and I can't find one anywhere. Checked all the parts stores, cal ranch and even the nut and bolt supplier says no. Any ideas?
 
Just called fastenal and he said no such thing exists... Just like nut and bolt said. It says right on moog's site that it's 11/16-18... Crappy
 
I saw them on summit but they say the ship date would be a week from now and that doesn't help me at all since my jeep is taken apart and I'm going to Moab on Friday... Eeek!

Anyone else know of a place?
 
mcmaster carr might have them and the last thing I ordered was at my house the next day. I didn't even pay for fast shipping.
 
None of them have it so I ordered a couple from rusty's for $4 and $25 for 3 day shipping... FML! The guy said they get this all the time and he wouldn't help me out at all with lower shipping or anything. Not my favorite company to deal with
 
$25 for 3 day shipping.. AKK..

I decided I hated rustys when they told me that the fix for my noisy LCA's that I got from them was a jam nut, ACME thread.. they wanted $25 for the nut and then $15 to ship it.. X2..
 
well the reason i ordered the tie rod from them in the first place is because they list the moog part #'s under the product description and make you think you are getting a beefy tie rod and moog ends for $99... little did i know they send it out with the worst tie rod ends ever made that were ruined the second they touched the jeep. i just got moog ends from oreilly for it and i spent $98 on just the two ends and now $30 for two stupid jam nuts. not a good deal :eek2:

i asked them why they list the moog numbers and don't actually use them and the dude straight-up lied to me over the phone and claimed that they always use moog or factory jeep parts. right...

lesson learned i guess. on a positive note i am still gonna make it to moab on friday for my 10th trip in this jeep (last 3 years) and my 16th trip overall (last 9 years)
