Since the CV joints and stub axles are interchangeable, the nuts must be.
Dorman should have the nuts, but their web site is difficult to navigate.
With the thread size, a search under "castellated nuts" would probably
enable one to find it.

Norm,
You're welcome!
BTW I was sent the following by a GMCer who wishes to remain anonymous:
Quote
It might be worth pointing out that the nut takes a 1-1/2" socket, preferably 3/4" drive, something that should be carried in the
coach along with a 3/4" breaker bar. They are not expensive at Tractor Supply, pretty dear at Sears and beyond reach at Snap-On and
similar. I also carry a 1/2" to 3/4" adapter and a 1/2" drive torque wrench just in case.
