Bill is right about the safety wires. They give you a quick visual that everything is as it was.

When you install the safety wire if you do it with a very small amount of slack so the wire is not tight but has a slight belly in it the visual inspection is even easier. If the wire has tightened up and the slack is gone the spinner needs a whack if not all is good.
