A few months of the 2000 production used nuts with a flange on them. ALL other 89-2003 Maximas used a regular nylock nut on it, which is what I designed the tie bar around.

*from memory* I believe it's an 18mm x 1.5mm thread pitch nut... not sure on that part though...

Either way, you can go to the dealer and order the part from any other year Maxima and they'll fit just fine. They're $3-5 each, IIRC.
