The lock ring, also known as a hub nut lock or axle nut retainer, plays a vital role in the suspension and drivetrain system of your HYUNDAI or KIA. It is designed to prevent the axle nut from loosening due to vibrations and rotational forces encountered during driving. Properly functioning lock rings are essential for maintaining the integrity of your wheel hub assembly. A loose or damaged lock ring can lead to premature wear on other components, compromised steering, and potentially dangerous driving conditions. This part is manufactured to meet the stringent quality standards set by HYUNDAI and KIA, ensuring a precise fit and long-lasting durability. Replacing your lock ring with the correct part number, 528214A400, guarantees compatibility and optimal performance. It is recommended to inspect the lock ring during routine maintenance or when replacing wheel bearings or axle components to ensure it is in good condition. Always consult your vehicle's service manual or a qualified mechanic if you are unsure about installation or replacement procedures.
