I located a set of tall body ASCO hubs but one of them has a large chip missing from outer edge of the hub gear. It doesn't appear to interfer with the splines but is located where the lock ring rides, so my concern is that under the right conditions the lock ring may pop out or bind?? Any expert opinions whether this is still useable?
Edit: top photo shows the damaged hub, bottom photo is a good hub gear to show the lock ring groove.
