Hi Bob,
It seems my reply was misunderstood. I think people might believe that =
NyLock nuts are an improvement over the OEM castle nuts. I was =
suggesting that people should use the original castle nut and not NyLock =
nuts. As you know, the castle nuts are available to purchase from most =
any local hardware store! A couple of thoughts come to mind; don't =
reinvent the wheel and if it isn't broke, don't fix it.

Regards,
John

Hi John,

You could always pop down to the nearest hardware store and buy a =
'regular' nut; 7/16" fine IIRC (but I'm not crawling under my car to =
check ;). Note, as others have, that nylock nuts weren't OEM.
