Last fall I went through a miserable time on the road trying to keep
my CV joints on after using regular lock washers. I tossed my serrated
washers after being told that the replacement CV joints would come
with "all new hardware." They didn't.

Long story short, I went to Fastenall and bought two-piece NordLock
washer. They are very good! Problem solved.
