Dorman Nut P/N:962-028
Dorman 962-512D nut threads onto a 3/8-16 bolt or stud to clamp parts together. This Dorman nut is a Grade 8 hex nut in steel with a yellow zinc finish.
Rounded hex corners, rust, or threads that strip or let the nut spin on without gripping can mean it needs replacing. If the old nut spins freely, a damaged bolt or stud can be the cause, so look at the threads with the engine off.
This nut is universal hardware, listed by size and thread rather than by vehicle. Match the 3/8-16 thread size and the nut height to the old nut or the bolt it goes on.
