I'm not sure what the other nuts are, but they weren't the standard 1/2" nut. The threaded rod would only go part way into the nut, not the entire way through. I explained that to Torklift's customer service guy.
Pretty sure those were lock nuts, better quality than nylocks. I think they're called deformed thread nuts. Did they have dimples or shallow slots cast into the face or sides of the hex portion?
They'll only screw on half way by hand and then need to be wrenched from there.
