My FM adjustable endlinks are great, but the locknuts on the reverse thread side won’t thread in, I think they are berked. The local Ace doesn’t have reverse thread.
Would Home Depot have these? Need this to work for autocross on Saturday.
Coincidentally, Keith, if your in here, what do you recommend? They arrived in this condition.
Amazon is worth a shot. Fastenal is likely to have it. Mcmaster I generally get stuff within a day or two if I order in the morning.

We do have a fastenal. I’ll try them tomorrow.
Speedway Motors will have them and has a 1 day delivery option

In reply to loosecannon :
I’m gonna try this, but I’m expecting $20 shipping on $2 nuts.

I think I'd call flyin Miata...
Look for a heim joint that would have the nut and steal the nut off of it. Might be cheaper than just buying a nut if you can find it on amazon
I came here to suggest McMaster Carr. But it's already been suggested.
You don't have a location listed in your profile, but if there is a McMaster in your area, they don't ship. They deliver, usually the next day if not sooner.
Ace Hardware. Our local ones have a surprisingly good selection of weird stuff, and won't bend you over a table like Fastenal.

I love Ace Hardware. They'll likely have what you need, along with an old guy happy to take you straight to it or confirm they don't have it.

I tried Ace already. They don’t have any reverse thread nuts. We also don’t have a McMaster car. We have fastenal though. I’ll try them.
There's only one McMaster, in NJ. If you're east coast, it will likely be to you tomorrow if you order now.
McMaster Carr has (at least) a distribution center in Chicago. Here in the Metro Indianapolis area, if we order something by 4:00pm It ALWAYS (and I mean ALWAYS with out fail) arrives the next day.
I've used McMaster for the last 15+ years while working at different companies.
If you haven't called us yet, please do so!

It’s all good. I ended up finding some. I’m not sure if this has become a thing with this order of endlinks for you guys, but if it does, might want to check the hand of your nut supplier. Lol.

Didn't know that. Every thing I've ever ordered from them (and that's a lot) has come from NJ.
