Where to find castle nuts for drive shafts?

While working on my vehicle I damaged one of the front drive axle castle nuts. Went to Mitsu this morning and tried to buy a replacement, only to be told that nobody has stock and this R10 part has to be flown in from Japan.

I work in Midrand, stay in Fourways, does anyone have suggestions as to alternative places to get these? I assume they must be fairly generic?

Thanks

Try bolt-fast, don't know if you have them up in Jo'burg. We have them all over down here, you will need to know the thread size and correct pitch or have a sample. Or an engineering supply store should be able to help.
