I know they never came with a jam nut BUT... Chevrolet discontinued the Chrome Ball very early as I tried to get one in the early '80's and they were already discontinued by then. The last iteration they sold was a crappy black plastic version smaller than the original and they looked like they belonged on a kids toy. The repro looks pretty good but the threads are no way as good as GM. You need the lock nut just to keep it screwed on.

Yep positive I drove down to Portland, Oregon and bought from The Chevy Store. It’s a classic car dealership. I saw the original Z28 it came out of. It was getting a JL8 rear. That was bought from Reggie Jackson (the baseball player) years ago. I have pictures of the rear end and the Z28.

Hello
I’ve owned my Camaro for 31 years now. It was my first car. I bought it for $1500 back in 1993. It has a 350, M21 4 speed and 12 bolt rear end BV code 4.10. It’s still a project and needs paint. I’ve been collecting as much original gm parts as I can, when I can afford them. Hopefully someday I can finish it and enjoy.
