ALL THE NUTS I HAVE DONT THREAD ON. almost desperate to drive it to a shop.... worried it will fall apart on me.

It is probably metric. Go buy 2 new lower ball joints and take the nuts then retur they rest. Do not drive it without the nuts it will fall apart

Get a thread pitch guage, and measure the diameter of the stud. Where I live there are at least two specialty places that just do fasteners. Or you might try the dealer they might have a part number for the nut alone.
