Longer Brass Nuts for sidpipe mounting (?)
I'd like to replace my existing 3/8" Brass Nuts next time I remove the sidepipes.
I've had the longer nuts and prefer them, but can't remember where I purchased them from. I've seen the shorter Dorman nuts, but can't find the longer ones now.
Can anyone tell me where they got them from?
Thanks!

Thanks, but I was looking for the longer brass nuts (Coupling nuts?), like 1 3/4". Searched Amazon, but can't find them there.
I don't remember where I got them.

The dorman 680-104 are what I've used for years and are about 1" long. Never seen anything inn brass that's 1 3/4".

Why do you want them so long?

Let me double-check the length, I was going by memory, so maybe they aren't that long.
