It says it's 1.5-inch in size, but is that for the diameter of the hole or the entire nut? Because the nuts I have on my car have 1-inch wide holes, but the entirety of the nut is 1.5-inches wide.

First I looked up this:
http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...1424&ppt=C0362
That gave me the thread size and pitch and then I found this:

You should be able to find this fairly easily now.
Funny thing is the fitment shows for Hondas.

If all other efforts come up empty .....
Try Sparky (Greg).

He's had quite a few 1st gen cars, some that were parted out IIRC.

Much confusion
I've been following this thread from the beginning, hoping for a simple resolution to the need of Laqueesha. It would seem to me that everyone is missing one important piece of information- GM did not use metric fasteners on '66-'78 front drive axle shafts. The link to an aftermarket replacement part, most likely from China, shows a M 24 x 1.5 thread. That means that the dia. is 24mm, just under 1". The "1.5" is NOT the dia. of the thread, but the thread pitch. I checked with a parts manager, that I know, at a Caddy dealer and the part is N/A; also, they no longer list the specs of individual hardware in their "catalogs". It would seem to me that Eric has the answer for you if you would just respond to him. 
That's the end of my rant for today. Thanks, Bob.
