Weird Problem

[PI96GT]

Has anyone else running an aluminum driveshaft had a problem with the bolts holding the driveshaft to the rear axle loosening?, any help would be great appreciated.

no, i havent. perhaps some green locktight might be a cheep and easy solution?

i tried using loctite b4, it came loose again. perhaps because the surface and the bolts werent clean enough?

Im still waiting to install mine, lookin forward to it, and yes try using some green or blue loctite on the bolts.

That is weird, I have a pile of bent 12mm wrench's from trying to get the bolts off, lol!

Make sure you are getting frull thread engagement, and it never hurt's to take a scotch brite and scuff/clean up the flange.

I think everyone has that pile of wrenches..... but yea clean off the threds best as possible and the flange and then get them tight.
