Dorman Nut P/N:962-016
Dorman 962-511D nut is a Grade 8 hex nut that threads onto a matching 5/16-18 bolt or stud to clamp parts together. This Dorman nut is a plain steel nut with no washer attached and no locking feature.
Rounded corners, stripped threads or heavy rust can mean a nut needs replacing. These signs alone do not show the nut is at fault, since a damaged bolt is another common cause.
This is universal hardware, sold by size and thread instead of by application. Match the 5/16-18 thread and the height to the nut you are replacing, and make sure the bolt or stud has the same thread.

What size bolt does the Dorman 962-511D nut thread onto?
The Dorman 962-511D has a 5/16-18 coarse, right-hand thread, so it needs a bolt or stud with the same thread. Match that thread to the part you are replacing.

The Dorman 962-511D listing holds 10 nuts. They are sold together as one pack.
What finish is on this 5/16-18 steel nut?
The steel nut has a yellow zinc finish. The hardware also goes through salt spray testing to confirm corrosion resistance.
How can I tell if a Grade 8 hex nut needs replacing?
Look, with the engine off and cool, for rounded corners, stripped threads or rust. A nut that no longer tightens down on its bolt is ready to be replaced.
Does the 962-511D nut replace Dorman 009-065?
Yes, 009-065 is one of the numbers this nut replaces. The Interchange line also lists 009-070, 001030 and 1030.
