What sort of nut do VANS intende should be used here? (middle of picture)
I am talking about the nut that retains the steel pin that stops the break assembly rotating on the axle. My RV4 plans indicate a 1/4-20 (coarse thread) , but my question is should it be a nylock or steel? I am concerned that under hard braking it might get quite warm and the nylock fail. Thoughts?
