What is the name of this kind of nut...
It has a flange on the bottom (flange nut), but also an extra vertical "ring" around the top that is often pinched with a stake to crimp onto a stud that has a small matching chunk out of the top of it.
For example, on most FWD cars, inside the hub there is such a nut on the end of the CV axle, to get the CV out you have to un-stake then unscrew. IIRC also found on pinions and output flanges. In this case it's on both ends of the cross-bar in IFS Toy upper control arms.
I need two in an m18x1.5 (27mm). I always call it a "stake nut" but failing w/ finding a source.
