These old 4 piece clamps are called "cable nuts". Over the last 30 years, these were difficult to find in incorrect 3/8" and 1/2" sizes and nearly impossible to find in the 7/16" size used on Power Wagons. I don't think thay are made any more. Some still might be found in the back rooms of old surplus stores and other old fun places, but the easiest place to find one is on an old Power Wagon. I've been looking for these for 3 decades and only have 2 (neither is for sale).
