No, you're fine. @G-Dog tends to give people nicknames when assigning them a club number. He'll no doubt be along presently.
As far as your jacks go, they usually use the same size nut as 3/8 shafted potentiometers. Check your local big online marketplace for a pack of 5-6 cheap. Or go to StewMac and pay more. 
The good thing is any music store can get them or they have them on Reverb or eBay. Even Fender sells them.
I found 4 "3/8 nuts with washers on evilbay for 11 bucks..
I probably paid to much???

I think the big A has several brands with 20 for 8-10 bucks. The Fender ones are nicer but cost more.
Heck, I paid $300 for her.
This thing is super light, and I have yet to master that overdrive section..
Any advice on how to get that overdriven sound...

Bienvenue, peek! @peekypoo, you are now member #1908 in the Fender Rumble Club. Congratulations and welcome. Please put that number in your TalkBass Signature for safe keeping. Then make yourself at home here and on your Rumble Club Wiki page, the repository of all Rumbling wisdom and knowledge.
Well, peek, your fellow Rumbler @JakobT posted the definitive Rumble overdrive treatise here nearly 8 years ago. And it is dutifully linked in your Rumble Wiki - Rumble Talks section in the Tone subsection.
So, peek, how about telling us a bit about yourself, such as your bass experience in general and your Rumble journey in particular? You'll fit right in here since we have all kinds. But we all love to ... ... ...
Rumble On!
Here's a way to find out! (This link is also in the Rumble Talks section, in the Hardware subsection, of your Rumble Club Wiki page.) But, if anyone has found out, they have yet to post it here, that I know of.
Tonight will be my first time taking the Rumble 500 to a gig at the local American Legion. I've rewired my green short scale Schecter Banshee Bass (with TI Flats) with a Fender Pure Vintage '63 Precision pickup, full sized CTS pots, a Switchcraft jack, and a .047 Orange Drop capacitior. It sounds so smooth now; perfectly even across the strings and up and down the neck.
After giving up bass and selling my Fender Precision and 4/4 German Flatback upright because of my left wrist, it is great to be playing again. Short scale has made it possible and the Banshee is a solid bass.
I auditioned the Rumble 100 and 500 this morning and although the 100 would have easily done the job, the 500 was the clear winner for tonight.

Protect your pedal with this dress nut and o-ring set for Switchcraft 1/4" jacks. The hex nut hides the bushing so all you see is a smooth, perfect finish.

Hmmm, is this cheating? Or is this the best of two worlds? 
It's what I do into my 500c. Except I go for the B-15 sound.Hmmm, is this cheating? Or is this the best of two worlds?
It's sooo good. B15 setting is just a bit dark for my taste.
