#1 Tab washer identification Salisbury 4HU stub axle?

Post by smokey_m14 » Mon Mar 11, 2019 7:50 pm

I tried to source one of these no luck, anyone have any insight? Should I just reuse it and bend another tab up? :shrug:

This is the style of stub axle with the recessed nut

Bend up another tab, you've got 6 left and I doubt you'll use them all up. If in doubt, bend up two!

I've actually already did all that. The general consensus is that it's not made anymore. I've emailed pictures to several suppliers who insisted I call them; just to inform me its not made anymore, which I pretty much already figured :questionmarks: :doh: As you could see i've already purchased these parts incase I needed to modify them to make them work :hammer: :wrench:

Fortunately it sounds like you both agree I can just clean up the original ones and bend up the other tabs. Thanks again for your input gentlemen!

She says "Tell him he wouldn't have recessed nuts around his stud axle for long if I catch him wearing them.".
