Dan the Gear Man® Tech Note:
These lock nuts are designed to be used only once. The locking ability of the nut is at it's maximum on the initial installation. When setting up an axle, I use the old nut until the pinion depth and pinion preload is set. I then apply medium strength Threadlocker (see S9978, S24200) to a new nut and install it with a 1-1/8" socket. See my color illustrated Technical Manual TM4400 Pinion and Differential Bearing Service on Dana-Spicer Monobeam Axles or your Factory Shop Manual for the correct torque or tightening procedure.
