Hi does anyone know where I can get just the steel inner part of these locks please.  They seem to work their way loose for a past time, no matter how tightly they are connected to the steady nut.  The grubs seem to vibrate loose when the van moves, has anyone else had this problem?

I've never had that problem Tony but, saying that, I've never bothered to check if they're working lose either. I've just been out to see & ours are nice & tight still. You might be able to pick up a set on Ebay or, if you still have the inners of yours minus the grub screws, you could drill through & hammer in a split cotter each side to hold them in place.

Thanks BB, I need to do something else with the fitting of them.  Can't be re ordering every five minutes.  I wonder if they are using a slightly looser grub screw which is allowing them to vibrate loose when the van is in motion.  Might be able to use a drop of locknut solution I guess.
