Default Heim Jam nut vs regular nut

I bought a new trackbar and it came today...WITHOUT a jam nut for the heim joint.

Is there a difference between a jam nut and a regular grade 8 nut?

As far as i caan see from my googling a jam nut is just thin. Kind of want to make sure before i run to the store for no reason.

Thanks in advance

Yeap, a jam nut is just a thin nut.

I think you should contact the seller and find out the deal about not sending you a jam nut for the trackbar. At least get them to send you the part # or thread count and pitch.
