Question on Dravette Safety Loops
Sorry about the dup ! I posted this in General by mistake, thought it best be posted in Technical
I recently purchased a set and was wondering if the OEM Castle Nut can be used, are there enough threads to install the Castlenut/carter pin ?

Haven't installed mine yet, but I don't believe
it will take too long. I only got the half-shaft loops. If you have offset trailing arms, there is a special set of loops for them, just talk to Steve at Dragvette.com.
The value in the loops is the money/time it saves you if one of the half-shafts should break loose
.
Steve got mine shipped out right away.

i have stock style trailering arms, o.k. lets forget for now about the drive shaft(they should make them 2 piece so you dont have to drop shafts!!,(oh ! there goes another patient idea!) how long would you say the install is for the bolt up of the safty loops on the half shafts??they do bolt up right???

Carl A - yep they bolt right up
haven't done my install yet, Not sure how long it will take.
Probably about 1 hour per side would be my guess.
You could call and talk to Steve at Dragvette, nice dude.
