i had my connecting rods re-babbited at Effingham and they included new bolts and self locking nuts. There are 2 Effinghams in the same town, learned the hard way, sent my rods to the wrong one.
411 W Wernsing Ave. Effingham, IL. 217 342 4186. Effingham Grinding.
they did an excellent job if anyone needs babbitting. about $50 per rod.
PS. I used the self locking nuts but also put in the cotter pins for piece of mind
the filling station or gary wallace may also sell them
