Okay, who knows where I can find those elusive 5/16-20 nuts used on the battery tray hold down studs?

 

Gotta be exact ones from dealer ?

 

I get that deer in the headlights look from the dealer. They have no clue. The harder it is, the more stubborn I become.

 

Have you tried your local hardware store?

 

Home Depot.

 

You try a local junk yard?

 

I was thinking of that also but around here they always remove the battery before you can actually pull parts from it.

 

Buy a lathe.

 

I'm sure someone on here doing a part out could ship them to you for cheap.

 

5/16 - 18 and 5/16 - 24 is all i'm familiar with... its really 5/16 x 20??? wow

edit: here you go sir... http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/140944545015?lpid=82
4.25 plus free shipping? doesn't get much better than that...

^ go to another forum with all that rude talk.

Buy some 5/16" threaded rod, bend them yourself? (Advantage: You can also positively stick them in place at the bottom, so you don't have them fishing/swimming around whenever you install or remove your battery... AND, you now know you're using a standard pitch.)

They have just about any bolt/nut you could want
