Depending on the type of person you are, sometime you read installation instructions, sometimes you don't. Sometime you forget about your brake line and you place your tie down on it and ruin it. It happens, we're human. Glad we have a place to get replacements and you have found it here.

Cotter Pin Replacement Bolt Kit Cotter Pin Replacement Bolt Kit

For several decades, castellated nuts required a cotter pin to hold the nut from backing off. Volkswagen has used them on their 36mm axle nuts from the start. Today, it changed by adding a reusable bolt kit with a nylon locking nut. Say goodbye to an archaic piece of tin and say hello to peace of mind, the Cotter Pin Replacement Bolt Kit.
