Need Help, Stripped the Spindle Nut

Does anyone know the thread size on the spindle nuts? Pass. Side came out fine, but the driver side peeled the threads off of the nut, and I need to get one ordered quick so it can still hopefully be in tomorrow. Anyone have a part number for one that fits from Advance Auto or O'Rielly? Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Is it a Dana 60 or 44. That shouldn't be too hard to find. Find a local drive line shop or junk yard.

Sorry for the lack of information... It is on Dad's 04, so it has the AAM on the front. I found out the threads are 1 1/8-18 UNEF, only issue now is finding a nut with matching threads. Only found a few bulk fastener shops online that have this. Looks like we'll end up getting bent over at the dealer for $44 for the nut. No junkyards around here with larger trucks, and a driveline shop is unheard of... thanks anyway.

Dealer's probably your best best for speed... and if it makes it easier to swallow, an EF nut in that size ain't cheap! I bet it'd cost us $15 just to put one on the shelf.

Of course, you could get one for practically nothing from a boneyard or truck shop.

Haha, thanks XLR8R, that helps to ease the pain a bit. I suppose the cost of one shipped to my door would probably be close enough to $40 that it makes it worth-wile to go to the dealer.
