Pitman Arm nut size

Can't seem to find this anywhere...

the nut underneath my pitman arm seems to have loosened up a bit, and I need to tighten it back.

I don't have a wrench big enough though, and want to know what size that stupid nut is so that I can go get one.

Your help is appreciated.

yeah, I believe it's 1 5/16"

I'm experiencing a clunk in the front end, and wondering if this has anything to do with it.

The truck's got a recent lift kit, so new springs, and new sway bar end links...

I felt a little bit of play in the track bar, and then noticed that nut was loose, so I figure that's gotta be the root of the clunk since I can hear it in the front, and feel it under my feet and slightly in the steering wheel.

Thanks Erik. Good to know.

A little Lock Tight certainly couldn't hurt.
