Fastener help needed

[txtopcat]

I need to locate the fastener that holds the hood hinge onto the pins. I have no idea what they are called so can't even do a search for them. The pic is of the pin I'm talking about. Thanks in advance!

looking for those too. Remember reading the name but forgot to write it down:banghead:

FOUND IT!!!! It's called a push nut. Whew!

Just bought a package of 100 of the push type retainers for the 1/2" hood hinge pins. If anybody else is needing any just let me know and I'll mail you four of them. It will be end of next week before I receive them.

Go to your local hardware store or NAPA. They should have them

I think I used axle caps, same thing with a cover.

i found a small hose clamp does a good job too.

the push nuts get sloppy over time and make the hinge kinda wobbly.....the hose clamp makes the area of slop smaller.......just sayin
