G'day Trucky.
They match large journal, not sure about small journal.
Cheers

I think the small journals had castelated nuts and split pins as you could not get a spanner on them otherwise. Quite a complex procedure as you used to fit the nut and torque it up then if the split pin hole did not line up you used to remove the nut and file the flat part until you could torque it up and the split pin holes used to line up.
