G'day Berger.
Julian is on to it. Bin the tab washer & recesed washer. Use the thick plain washer & something like 262 loctite.
  If you are using a "pattern" *rant* shaft adapter, dry assemble the hub to it to make sure the hub splines are 1or 2 mm proud.
If not , grind that amount off the adapter end.  Had to do this recently to a "pattern"  *angry* Trihard  adapter.
Easy *beer*


 im having the same problem  would loctite nut lock 242e medium strength be any good or should i go out and buy some thing stronger

242 medium is perfect. I use it for years on the clutch nut without the lockwasher. Never had one come loose.
