 Or a bag of 25.  Depends.  Buy lock washers while you're there.  at 7$/1000 they work out to be less than a penny a piece.  Some say never reuse a lock washer.  At $0.007each why would you?

I bet if you look in the NcMaster-Car website you will find what you need. The downside is that you will have a whole box!Dave Connitt

I would use at least a grade 5 nut. If you can’t find locknuts, I don’t see why some red Loctite wouldn’t work. A free driveshaft, whipping around in its tunnel at speed, would probably be a negative experience.  Alex Thomson  From: Triumphs [mailto:triumphs-bounces at autox.team.net] On Behalf Of Sujit Roy

I need to replace the lock nuts uses to hold the diff flanges to the drive shafts on my stag. Can I use grade 2 nuts? Granger has some on clearance. I'm assuming basic nuts and bolts used Triumphs were grade 3 .  Sujit** triumphs at autox.team.net **
