Description
The Stage 8 Locking Spindle Nut is comprised of five meticulously designed components:
– Thrust washer
– Specialized notched washer
– Adjustable spindle nut (settable to individual preload values)
– Locking retainer
– Heavy spring steel snap ring
Installation is straightforward and requires no specialized tools, allowing users to achieve precise locking within half a degree of any desired position. This means you can avoid both over-torquing and under-torquing, thereby ensuring that the necessary bearing preload is consistently maintained. The design is particularly resilient against severe reverse torque, making it an essential upgrade for off-road enthusiasts and those venturing far from service locations.
Compatibility includes a variety of vehicles equipped with Dana 30, 44, or 60 axles, such as:
– Early Broncos
– Big Broncos
– Dentside F-Series Trucks

– Scouts
– Jeeps
– Ramchargers
Each axle will require two spindle nuts for complete functionality.

What a great replacement for stock spindle nut system. Quick to install, easy and secures the hub much better. Super system.
