I I read this post,e the link to thatthose nuts on Amazon shows that they are out out of stock. I used these from McMaster Carr on a different project. They are black oxide, which should have slightly better corrosion resistance than plain old steel.

Also, it's my understanding that gladiator rails are wider than Tacoma rails. The McMaster Carr nuts are for a 5/8" slot, and the neck is not longer than the thickness of the gladiator rail face. In other words, a perfect fit!
I was splashing through salt water last weekend, though, and everything got soaked. Stainless steel would be best!

Has anybody confirmed the fitment of the McMaster Carr T slot nuts? I am about to pull the trigger on them for a bed rack system I'm building.
