[QUOTE="richg99, post: 363473, member: 4376"] Over the years, I've gotten away from using lock washers. I've gone to stainless steel nylock type nuts and SS bolts. Just a lot easier for me to slip on in tight spots. I have no doubt that the old fashioned, cheaper, lock washers work just fine. Rich p.s. One thing that I did recently find, though, is to NOT try to put a SS nylock onto a galvanized bolt. I sheared the galvanized bolt right off. I now use both SS bolts and nuts. [/QUOTE]
