Norton Engine Steady Stud Nut
Engine steady stud nut for the Norton Commando isolastic mounting setup.
This is a nut for the engine steady stud on a Norton Commando. The steady stud ties the engine into the frame's front isolastic mounting arrangement, and this nut clamps that connection down. It shows up across a wide range of the parts book figures because the Commando's isolastic frame layout means engine mounting hardware gets cross-listed with all sorts of nearby assemblies - carburetor mountings, footrest supports, front forks, exhaust brackets, and the rest.

The catalog record ties this part to Norton, not Triumph, and it appears through the 1971-1973 Commando range in our records. It's a small, plain piece of hardware, but on an isolastic-frame Commando the engine steady is part of what keeps the vibration-isolated engine cradle located correctly, so it's worth checking the stud and nut together rather than assuming one is fine because the other looks fine.
If you're chasing this by an older part number or a different catalog listing, give us a call and we can confirm it's the same physical nut before you order.
