WA Mirror nylon washers for sale - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Accelo · 03-01-2024, 03:09 PM

I have lots of washers, in stock and ready to ship.

I found the mirror studs are 3/8" NC but the thread profile is slightly different than the general specifications for a 3/8" NC nut. It requires re-threading the stud with a die nut to get them to go on nicely. If the West Coast Mirrors have the 3/8" NC studs it's likely the nuts will work. 4 Stainless nuts are $20. and $10 for shipping the washers and nuts.

In the past I wasn't charging for shipping the washers, but some didn't make it. I was sending them taped to the inside of an envelope. Didn't work all that well and caused more issues than it was worth.
Bottom line, $35 for the for nuts and a set of washers for two mirrors.
I am not making anything for my time. Could be a couple weeks, for the nuts, they are completed in my spare time and I don't have a lot of it.
Thanks

Can you make extra tall acorn nuts? I would like a pair of them for my 5x7 mirrors. No one offers them for 1/4-28 threads that I can find.

Yes. A picture of an original would help.

**Tmend** · 03-02-2024, 11:24 AM

I’ll take a set of nuts and washers . Please send me payment info . Thanks much

**70STOVEBOLT** · 03-02-2024, 01:14 PM

I don’t have a picture of the nut I’m looking for, but here is what I have. I want to cover the threads on the stud with an acorn nut.

Accelo · 03-02-2024, 04:28 PM

Did you want to replace the nut also?
Or just have a cover for the existing 1/4 NF-threads?

**70STOVEBOLT** · 03-02-2024, 08:07 PM

Replace the existing nut with the acorn nut. Here is the total length of the threads.

**Joesjunk** · 03-07-2024, 05:07 PM

PayPal sent for nuts and washers for a pair of mirrors. Thanks

**70STOVEBOLT** · 03-07-2024, 05:36 PM

Here are a couple pics to compare threads.

One set for two mirrors left in the mail today. Thank you.

**IronCanine** · 03-08-2024, 06:29 PM

Sounds great. Thanks!

**70STOVEBOLT** · 03-08-2024, 08:18 PM

PayPal sent for tall acorn nuts

Accelo · 03-10-2024, 12:49 PM

I have sold all the nuts I have produced. I will not be producing any more. They seem simple enough but the time to manufacture them is just too long. Some day I will be able to do them using a CNC. I will still sell the washers till I am out of stock.

I have included a picture of the custom 1/4" nuts and washers I built for 70STOVEBOLT.

**Getter-Done** · 03-10-2024, 01:05 PM

Are you looking into a CNC lathe for your home shop?

Accelo · 03-10-2024, 01:57 PM

I have a small CNC (Shureline) I have been building on for some time.
It is too small to really do the nuts. Mainly because the head-stock bore is too small.

These look good. Did you receive my PayPal payment?

Accelo · 03-12-2024, 01:19 PM

I did not receive a PM.

Accelo · 03-12-2024, 02:15 PM

I just require an address, boxed and ready to go.

I'll take some washers, sending PM.

**Eagle9502** · 03-13-2024, 12:06 PM

Looks like your mailbox is full. I'd like enough washers to 3 sets/pairs of DG4 mirrors (6 individual mirrors). Let me know total. Thanks

Accelo · 03-16-2024, 11:13 PM

5 bucks a set of 8 (enough to do a set for one truck)
three sets it $15 & $5 shipping.
I have cleared my mail box. Been out of town for a few days.
Thanks

**70STOVEBOLT** · 03-18-2024, 03:42 PM

Rick, I received the nuts and washers . They fit perfectly and look to be excellent quality. Thanks again. I will try to remember to post a pic when I get them installed.
