this is virgin territory to me. the the new half shaft just got in and a new seal for it. im going in about 1 hour to pick it up and plan to have this done tonight. is there any other hardware ill require for a successful completion of this project?
 
Dorman still has a number for them. Your parts place may or may not have them in stock: Dorman#615155 $5.50 at Rockauto for a 2 pack.
 
good thing you told me about the nut Dave, the nut i got from ford didnt even fit, it had the wrong thread and the new shaft did come with its own nut. its all in and rides smooth. didnt get hard on it yet. im going to run it for a few days first.

did your old nut have the right thread pitch? Or did the new axle have a completely different thread on it?
