bearing locknut?

Where do I get one without having to buy a whole kit. And does anyone know how to put it on without breaking the little locking pin.

What is this locknut and bearing for? Are we talking about a castellated nut or something different?

you must be talking about the inside nut on you 4x4 front hub? if so most off road shops have the nuts. You line the pin up with the holes in the lock washer sometimes you have to flip the washer sometimes you have to tighten or loosen the nut a touch get right down and look into the hub I wipe everything clean use a flashlight, it rarely lines up the first time

The way to not break it is take your time and be gentle. Once its lined up you should follow the proper procedure, which in most cases is tighten to around 12 ft lbs, then loosen 1/4-1/2 turn and then retighten until the nut contacts the other one.
