[DMCForum] Re: Toby bolts without locknuts



You must have a pair from first production run. My instructions
mention that original owners wanted to double nut, and that jamb nuts
were included for that purpose (actually he recommended putting jamb
nuts closest to washer, but I installed normally).

Don't know your thread pattern, but mine came 7/16x20 (custom shank
though -- about 1/2"). If yours same is ultimately easy to buy some
grade 5 or 8 lock nuts.
