Source of supply
The second relates to the availability of 3/16" captive nuts. As in any restoration there are some bolts which you either can't coax out of the cab or which shear off so the captive nuts need to be replaced. There are of course many areas where you can get behind with an ordinary nut but some definitely have to be replaced. The 3/16" are the ones used in the cab floor, around the grille, driver's toeplate and dash on a Ford cab. The nuts are square.

Thanks

Hi Keith

The captive nuts are available check the recent thread for sources and whats reasonable http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/sh...ht=captive+nut

If you can not find them in Australia I think some of the sources listed will ship them.

Cheers Phil
