New to the forum and I am working on the rear axle (no ABS) of a 2004 V6 GT. I'm curious as to where I can get the two axle nuts for the hubs. We have the new hubs already and all the tools to do the job just haven't been able to find the right nuts. Orielly's tried selling us the castle nuts for the front hubs and auto-zone, advanced and NAPA can't get them in. Any help would be appreciated.

Dealer obviously, but why do you need new nuts?

Rockauto has a couple of options for you: 2004 HYUNDAI TIBURON 2.7L V6 Spindle Nut | RockAuto Of course their shipping is high unless you need to order some other things as well. Might be able to use those part numbers to find one elsewhere though.

It's a good idea to use a new one when replacing the hub. These nuts get indented after install to prevent them backing off, and that indentation is not likely to line up well with the new hub and/or will be weakened after removal.

I understand the "locking indent" of the nut. I prefer the old indent to NOT line up so I can make a new indent.
