Abstract
Locking nut assembly for a bearing hub of a four wheel drive vehicle. The hub is externally threaded hub and has a longitudinally extending slot, and a nut is threadedly mounted on the hub. A retainer fits over the nut and has a multi-sided peripheral flange which surrounds the nut and a tang which extends into the slot in the hub to prevent rotation of the nut relative to the hub. A retaining ring mounted peripherally of the retainer extends through notches in the corner portions of the peripheral flange and the nut to hold the retainer on the nut.
