While performing the spring install, I ran into some trouble with the Track Bar hardware. I got by for a week or so, but today I had to replace it, as it was backing out. The threads were damaged when installed the bolt last time, and the nut didn’t hold..
Here’s the new hardware, metric of course.

And in the process of removing the track bar, the castle nut that holds the ball joint in the frame side, stripped out. So I ended up making my own castle nut after trying several auto, implement, and hardware stores looking for a 14mm X 1.50 size.

Took longer than I wanted to repair, but it’s done right and I shouldn’t have to worry about this for a long time.
