Lower ball joint nut?

I believe that it is a castle nut and uses a clip. If you lost it you should try to order a new nut and clip from your dealer. It is unsafe to run a regular nut. If your ball joint fails on the freeway it will be bad.

i am getting all new uppers and lowers for it before i get done, but i just need to be able to roll it around and i cant without a nut of anykind on it.
it is just temporary but if i cant find out what the thread pitch is and size then i will probably buy one of yours.
