Well I ordered part number 04505365 and the accompanying fancy washer/nut/locknut. I can post the part number for the nuts if anyone wants it. Turns out the front adapter/bowl I have doesn't have metric threads lol. It makes sense if they switched to a metric stud in late 80's (^didn't read that part previously), the adapter I got from Ike, he said it was from a 70's or early 80's 1 ton Dodge IIRC. The threads in this bowl are standard coarse thread. Also, FWIW, 04505365 is slightly different and shorter than the studs in other bowls I have around the shop.
Iz69, if you have a link for the other standard thread stud, please post it. Thanks.
