Rear Axle question

Rear Dana 60 full floating with demountable drums. Per the factory book, torque the bearings to 50-60 ft lbs to seat and back off 1/8 turn. Install spindle lock, bend tab over nut, install locking nut and torque to 175 ft lbs. I get anywhere near this value the inner tab on the spindle lock shears. Gone thru 2 locks now. New torque wrench. Anyone have a solution?
