Minor problem, seeking advice

[Coupefreak]

Howdy everybody, I apologize for my absence, but I'm back out in the shop now, and ready to get busy

I have a set of TP spindles, and I need the spindle nuts for them.
since TP is no more, does anybody know where I can get a couple spindle nuts? or perhaps someone here knows what size they are, and I'll try to source them locally.

Thanks for your help.

Call Speedway. They bought all of TP's stuff. Maybe they can help you out.

I got mine {castle nuts} at of all places ace hardware in the auto bolt section i took my spindle in.

If I'm not mistaken, they're the same as the ones for early Ford spindles and Speedway will have them. TP in Florida may have them, Speedway isn't set up for Total stuff yet.

Take the spindle to the local NAPA store. Chances are it is a standard 3/4-16 nut and they should have it. It needs to be a castle nut for the cotter pin.
