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.
