    Steering Knuckle Arm Rivet

    The steering knuckle arm has two holes. Power steering cars are supposed to have a rivet in the rearmost hole. Does anyone know where I can purchase two of the 3794056 rivets or two rivets that closely look like them? I have looked at several of the Corvette vendor websites and have not been able to find them.

    Thanks,
    Allen

    Hi Allen
    I think I bought those aluminum plugs from Brian Bair in the past.

        Allen,
        If Bairs don't have them check with Jeff Pollard here on NCRS, I did his front arms a few years ago and he supplied them. I recall this because I installed them in the wrong position as the factory did- they functioned correct but appeared wrong!!!!duh! Jeff can help you.

          Allen - There are plenty of good used ones around which you might want to consider. This way you are ensured of getting the correct configuration and style of rivet.

            I believe the power steering hole is the ones closest to the front not the rear, the manual steering goes in the rear hole

            Sorry I misread, I was referring to the tie rod end in the front hole for power steering,
