My rugged ridge SYE seem to have an extra lock ring.

2x small lock rings for the speedometer gears

1x large lock ring for the new SYE shaft and gear assembly

Where does the other large lock ring goes to?

To here?

Appreciate if i can get some advice.

I just installed a SYE kit from Rusty's it also had an extra snap ring. Used a total of 3, thick one on the main gear assy, 2 on the speedo gear.

I have never used the extra lock ring on any SYE's I have installed. I am not sure why it is included.

Thx for all the input!

Just recevied an email from Rugged Ridge.

There should be 4 snap rings, 2 for the speedometer gear, 1 for the mode
gear, and one for the rear output bearing.

Thank you

I have gotten alot of replies about the 2nd large lock ring being extra but after reading AA installation guide (pls look at page 9, fig 10A), it mentioned installing a snap ring on the tail housing.
