As a follow up on the loose hub bolt thread that I started a way's back......
I was initialy was going to go with locktighted studs, bendable lock tabs and nyloc nuts but after having trouble locating the correct studs untill finding them at Warns site although fairly expensive, at that point I decided to look into the Stage 8 locks that were sugested by ?(sorry) and found them for $33 at Summit (cheaper than Warn studs) so what the heck give them a try. Just back from a 3 day wheeling trip in Death Valley with a very experienced group and after at least 30 miles locked in doing the Swansea-salt tram loop that climbs from 4K to 11K feet and back down and some other misc. runs the are all still tight.
A+
