Ding ding ding I do believe we have a winna.


Actually, often times adding a washer will put the nut out on the threads too far to get a cotter key through the hole. The winner is to tighten the nut to the next hole. Gene

Not if you used a shim and not a full thickness washer. Common practice when assembling certain items that only have 1 proper alignment. Absolutely nothing wrong with this approach.


Also, common practice to hit the torque and add more till castle nut alignment is reached, since this is never more than 1/6th of a turn. Also another acceptable solution with absolutely nothing wrong


Both solutions would be acceptable.
