Just for comparison sake....I bought 2 axle nuts (castle type,
1-1/4"x16...MIL specs) for my new skis from Spruce for $10.95 each,
and the very same nut from Grove is $15.50 each. I think that Spruce
sets their price based on how many they sell...pick an odd-ball size
of almost anything, and you'll pay more. At least that's the way I'm
seeing the trend.
