Here's the jist. I got Pi#$%d off having to re tighten my spindle nuts for the 100th time and overftightened the inner nut. couple days later that whole side grenaded. it was snowing out at the time an 4wd was engaged. I egged out the spindle with the stub shaft. Stub got beat up pretty good to the point where there isnt a place for the c clip. My question is this : Can I run the truck without the outer c clip on the stub shaft for a couple months? till i have the time to replace both drive shafts.
