Hi all, I’m trying to work out which nut goes on first and which way up? Number 5 is called a “stamped nut”and number 6 is called a “Hex jam nut” is the jam nut installed first and which way up? Thanks Paul.

Paul, the big silver nut goes on first and the black sheetmetal type nut is a lock nut.

Can only face one way really, to bear on the main nut. So the bent up sides face upward.
