WTB: Handbrake adjustment parts

Post by Datto_610 »

So I'm missing a few small components for my handbrake adjuster mainly this funny nut thing which is pictured below. It's for my datsun 180B but unsure if other cars have something similar. Also need a small clevis pin but I can probably make do with that. I thought about going to pick a part but could spend hours looking under cars trying to find something like it. So any help will be much appreciated! I think the thread is like m5 or m6 can confirm later. Anyway here are some pics to better explain what I'm after.

If you cant find one, just get a suitable sized bolt, drill hole through middle, and use round file to shape end?

Yup but trying to find someone who's willing to give up those parts will be near impossible :S
