Ah I see, just pop the nuts back on them to stop them rattling round

Just got back with my new U J,S and 8 new nuts and bolts .My query is ,the bolts that are on the transfer bolt flange, there is a large lock nut holding the flange in place.Can I just undo this nut without causing any problems ? Thx

Yep, they where all damaged.So ithought it best to renew them all.Also if I decided to change the transfer box gasket oil at the same time can I use instant gasket ?
