Chain box nuts
 
1979 911sc.
I am just reinstalling my chain boxes.
I thought I did a good job taking lots of pictures. Apparently not enough!
On the right side chain box I have 5 nuts to attach (2 internal and 3 external).
4 of the nuts are regular M8 (R in the image). The odd nut is M8 thread but has a different shape (L in the image).
I cannot figure out where this odd nut goes or why it is different in shape.
Does anyone have any clues for me?

Thanks, David

The one on the left is the top nut that supports the A/C table.
On the inside you need waved washers and regular nuts.
On the outside a steel washer and a nyloc
No washer on the left nut in the picture
If you’re removing the AC compressor then use a regular nyloc nut

Hi Bruce - perfect.
Thanks very much - A/C gone, so nyloc it is.
