42-47 open drive banjo help, i'm goin nuts!

I've got a 42-47 open drive Banjo. I need the nut that holds the driveshaft yoke on the pinion or at least the diameter and the thread. I measure 7/8-20 but I got one from a guy and it won't thread on. Anyone have one or know the size or where I can get one?

 

Hit any of the old Ford catalog sites

 

I've looked.

 

did you try sacramento vintage ford ??

I looked in the catalogue but havent called them.

 

Dennis Carpenter, Little Dearborn, or try Half Ton Fun @ 732-928-9421.

 

I looked at those 3 catalogue pages. The pinion locknut is listed but not the castle nut that tightens down on the open drive yoke.

 

ahh i see ...
