Be careful of the thread pitch. Those stamped steel nut-serts in the lower A-arm break easy.

I lost those things years ago. I'm running good 'ol hardware store Grade 10.8 metric, welded to the arm with the head on the top side (threads down), with nylock nuts holding the T-bar on.

They're surprisingly cheesy. Not much material involved.

They were only meant to have a bolt run into them once.
