Hello everyone....its been over a year since I posted here in the Forum....still working on the C3's..... but now also devoting more time to the 94....so getting ready to remove the ball joints from the uppers and lowers....already have the lower control arm bushings out on one lower control arm....still have the other three arms to do...."and then some"....using white vinegar and baking soda to soak and clean parts...which is very inexpensive and getting great results IMO....did the nuts and washers today on the upper arms....definitely a difference....after soaking may need a scrub here and there...to get the desired look....or close to it....also noticed that in the end of the one side of the nuts....there is a plastic insert....I am missing one... the other three are in the nut and seem to be ok....have to check the vendors if such a part is available to reinsert back into the nut....[emoji848]
pics below.....[emoji16][emoji16] Pic #1...Here are both the top and bottoms of the nuts and washers..cleaned with the vinegar and baking soda solution. ..will paint the nuts and most likely the washers also.....the plastic insert I mentioned in the text is under the yellow semi-circle....one is missing... anyone know of a vendor that may have these???....TIA.... Pic #2...This is the before.....a noticeable difference for sure after cleaning in the above pic....20240125_215803.jpg20240125_150303.jpg Sent from my SM-G981U using ZR-1 Net Registry mobile app

Hi Tom,
Good to hear from you. The plastic piece is crimped in during manufacture of the nut. Doubt a replacement can be found. Better off replacing the nut with a good one.
