Hi Guys,

Heres one for you,Have a 1938 plymouth sedan p-4 The left side tie rod castle nut uses a  7/8 wrench

The Right side (Pass) uses a 13/16,Why are the not the same size,The tapered stud on right side is noticeby smaller on the right side.

I’m guessing they are simply 2 different brands of parts that are made slightly different.

A 1938 Plymouth is either a P5 (Roadking) or a P6 (Deluxe).
