I found the same nut in the same location the first time I vacuumed.

Get outta here! Really?!?I found the same nut in the same location the first time I vacuumed.
Yup, it’s been riding in my rear passenger door pocket ever since. ?Get outta here! Really?!?
Sometimes you feel like a nut…
Hi Randy and David,I found the same nut in the same location the first time I vacuumed.
As far as installing these tight neoprene type seat covers, there is a trick. What you do is cover your seat in a garbage bag. Then the seat cover will slide on much easier, then pull out the garbage bag.So I installed Wet Okole seat covers Sunday and what a pain those are!
But as I was futzing with the front passenger seat, this fell out toward the outside rear underside of the seat.
Great ... this stuff bugs me and it certainly isn't an "extra" part. I couldn't see anything missing a nut but it must be to something like the seat raiser and layer-backer thingie.
It doesn't look like it's had a socket on it. So either that means it was placed on and never tightened or maybe what, did uit just fall in from the extra parts when they build seats? I can't believe a nut would fall into a seat during assembly?
Any ideas?
If you know of detailed parts diagrams, I'd sure be appreciative to look at them (I've only looked for a few minutes and no luck yet).
Or maybe this is meant to be missing as another "deleted item" from Ford Rangers! =D
Clever and bummer I didn't know that! Thanks and I hope others benefit from your great suggestion. =)As far as installing these tight neoprene type seat covers, there is a trick.

The only things I've found, so far, is that tailgate plug and a bag with license plate screws. Plus my awesome $1.57 mystery nut! =DWhen I got my truck there was various little 2" by 2" bags in the truck each with two to four nuts, or bolts, or screws. Bag had a barcode on them but no numbers. Some were found in the door pockets, glove box, behind the back seat, in the center console. I thought maybe Ford never finished building the truck.
I still have them in a coffee can on the workbench.
Holy smokes Phil! You can tell that from a pic!Hi Randy and David,
Different nuts... Here is TMI....Ford fastener finish suffix David has an S2 finish nut and Randy has an S36 finish from this chart....
Best,
Phil

I called Ford HR. Yup, same dude. He got transferred to Wayne from Hermosillo after they caught him using a 6 inch masonry bit.I wonder if that's the same guy drilling holes into the gas tanks of Mavericks for their bed liners!
Can't you engineers just say "shoulder nut?"Hi David,
It is a UBS flange nut... Uniform Bearing Surface It does not show signs of being installed as near I can tell... I think it is an extra nut that fell out of the operator's hand/installation tool, etc...
best,
Phil
Speaking of which, anybody heard from her lately?Yeah, right.......I find that hard to believe. As Tracy @Tracy Bowman would say .
