I've never found any big enough for the bolts on a bush hoglittletom":3b77yn0u said:Locknuts with the plastic ring in them.
Are you talking about the complete blade holder with stump grinder. I have a Rhino and the nut is a castle nut and you have to use cotter pins to hold it on.TSR":1jpdts5g said:Anyone here perfected a way to keep the cutter assembly nuts from loosening? This is a 20ft rhino and the two outer spinner assembly nuts are always coming loose.

I just got through trying the lock nuts with the plastic inserts tightened all my half inch impact would do and they still came loose and begin to flop. I had replaced the castle nuts with the plastic insert lock nuts. May try the castle nuts one more time with the lock washers as Dun had suggested. Just thought someone might have found a something better.

I think that there is a large cotter key that holds the nut in place look really close and see if the shaft has a hole in it. It is a pretty tight squeeze getting the cotter key is. The key is probable at least a 1/4 in diameter.
