He called it a "torque lock". He said something about some can make some noise as it is basically metal to metal rather than clutch type material. He said he would have the guy painstakingly assemble it to avoid any noise, and is why he said he'd swap them out if necessary if it does make any noise. He said he understands that in Cobras, the rear end is right behind the driver (good point), and he just wants his customers to be happy. He also has the "traction lock" which is $675, with their gears.

As for nuts, Shell Valley had put regular washers and nylock nuts on the third member and my dad suggested going with stainless just to avoid rusting...but the brass washers sounds good. How much do you want for the bolt or nut kit? Not sure which way I will go yet, but it's nice to consider all options.

Thanks again,
Greg
