Has anyone tried these? (X-lock spindle nut if the link don't work)

They cost about the same for an oem replacement in my area. And they "sound" like a more solid option.

I looked into them The last time I did my brakes. you need 2 kits to do an axle so that would be $120. I went to 6 States dist. and got the old style lock nuts and washer for about $40. time before I put new nuts and retainers on and was not happy with what I found when I took it apart the retainers bent over so that tells me the nut was on the move witch is not good.

WHat's wrong with the OEM pair of nuts, with the washer between the two? (Pete- zip it!!)
