Default front wheel bearing

I'm changing the front wheel bearing on a 2005 Yamaha golf cart.
Question, I can't find anywhere how tight the front nut should be and also what keeps in tight. The one I took off was some what loose and the carter key was In place. Is this the only way to make sure it stays in place? It had a blue mark on it (nut).

Thanks
Sonny

THe nut is supposed to be a lock nut. The correct one will NEVER come loose, it fights you all the way off. As long as the nut is still good.

Flange nut, no "castle" to it. The split pin is a last ditch emergency piece that will never touch the nut during the life of the cart. Similar to this one on my G2.
