in the process of rebuilding my 8 3/4 and noticed it is missing the end play adjuster.  My understanding is that is needed if I go with the stock tapered bearing setup or I go with Green bearings and not worry about it.  I 've read both good and bad with the GB set up. This is for a pretty much stock rebuilt daily driver.  but my problem is that i cant find the adjuster anywhere. Does anyone sell them?

Thanks

I see some listed on eBay.  You may want to check with DoctorDiff too.  I have the original from my car that you can have if you want to cover the shipping.  Replaced it with an NOS one.

Bullitt-

I would be surprised if the adjuster itself is missing 
maybe the lock is missing https://www.rosevillemoparts.com/product/axle-adjusting-nut-locking-pawl/

Look around 15-minute mark to see the adjuster
