Don't know how yours is equipped, but an 11/16" - 18 castle nut is typical on those.  Yours may have lost the cotter pin and that's why it came off. Search online for it, or at an auto parts store, or a really good hardware store. May be someone on here who could send you one.

Good luck. I was unimpressed with the people working at Autozone this weekend. Apparently you have to explain what a firewall grommet is for before they will tell you what damn area of the store they keep them in. Personally I thought the combination of firewall and grommet would have explained it all. I was stunningly mistaken.

If you need too, just go to speedway motors and order one. You'll have it in a couple days.
Love building rat rods, driving mustangs, and building websites.

I ended up finding a perfect match at a local hardware store. Yea they should employ some gear heads not people that dont understand what a double tie rod is haha and I went onto speedway motors but I couldnt find it, I might have been looking in the wrong place but I spent awhile looking for it lol maybe im not any better then those people at autozone lol   ???
