ID Front Spindle Lock Nuts & Misc.
Got a bin full of greasy front spindle lock nuts plus some other misc. parts that I need help identifying.
The spindle lock nuts have different markings: - “L” & “->” - “L & S” - “K S” I believe that the single are may be a rear suspension shim. No clue what the the following are: - 3 six point nuts - Pr of multi-link parts - single “nut” - electrical pod? You help identifying these part is appreciated - thanks ![]() ![]()

The first photo doesn't look like a 914 part to me. Maybe the guts of an electrical cut-off switch?
The shim in the second photo is not a 914 rear alignment shim. Those look like a number 7, not a letter Z. Don't know where it could be from. The three C-shaped things under that shim look like rocker shaft retainers from a 914-4 motor. Should have a hole in the top and bottom of the C; one of the holes should be chamfered on the outside. The clamp nuts look like 914 ones. An Allen screw would go through the ends of the nut to squeeze them together and keep the nut from tightening or loosening. Don't know what the letters would be for; the wheel hub clamp nuts are left-hand threaded or right-hand threaded, depending on which side of the car they go on. But none of them say "R", so I'm not sure what is really going on there. No idea what the collar thing or those two three-pronged parts are. --DD

Thanks Dave.
The three c-shaped things do have the holes and are chamfered. And Bruce concurs that the clamp nuts are 914 locking spindle nuts (the allen bolts are at the top of the pic). Turns out that the that the "L&S" and "K X" are both lefties and righties. The stuff I come across.

Wait, I think the three-pronged parts might be part of the ski rack! One ski goes between each side prong and the middle prong, and the whole thing either gets bolted to the rear bumper, or under the Targa bar where those three plugs on each side are.
