Dan the Gear Man® Tech Notes: OE Nut Note
Inner Thrust Washer Kit Includes Spare Parts Matching Parts Applications
Tech Note 1: OE Nut Note This is a great Kit, but you should know the original equipment QU40118 single nut and QU40115 lock wedge is perfectly adequate for keeping your rear hubs in place IF they are:
A) Properly Installed.
B) NEVER Reused
Tech Note 2: Inner Thrust Washer One of the big problems with the original equipment single nut, is the tendency for the outer wheel bearing inner race to wear into the nut. The TK40038 Inner Thrust Washer eliminates this problem thereby extending bearing life and reducing the chance of having a rear wheel seal leak.
