Thanks to everyone who responded. I did a terrible job of describing the
question as many suggested I gently file down the nut to expose the split pin
hole.
My problem was just the opposite... a bunch of bare threads exposed below the
nut before you find the split pin hole.
Bob Rich says he always puts a lock (split) washer on before nut and that
would seem to solve the problem. Couldn't see a problem for adding a washer
or spacer of some type but thought I might be missing some larger issue (like
I assembled improperly).
I'm working towards having all bits and pieces staying where they are
supposed to be... (especially steering mechanisms) while whizzing down the
road at speed!
Thanks to all for imput,
Don B.
