>AM General has a new design wheel spindle nut that does not use the keyed washer to hold it from turning - the new design nut is cut through radially with a set screw that clinches the nut when you have the spindle bearing adjustment accomplished rather than bending over the washer tang as in the type originally used. Any HUMMER dealer's parts department SHOULD be able to put you onto these. By the way, if you do go this route, be sure to get a copy of the installation instructions as they is abit involved. Good Luck! Robert Anderson 9/8 From: Scuba Steve <me_scubasteve@yahoo.com>
