If you torque axle nut to 217ft-lbs you don't usually strip splines out, but I guess you know that...

Appletree Automotive had a price matching program. As far as I know, it is still in effect, but they have good prices to begin with. I think you would also get free shipping if you ordered a pair of them.

This isn't as embarrassing as driving back from the dunes and having one of your rear wheels pass you because you lost your nut. Ask me how I know
