Just use good judgement and get them tight. A little Loctite wouldn't hurt if you are concerned with them backing off. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2009 Posts: 164 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2009 Posts: 164 | Wow Czechman, (light bulb lights up here)
I was going to get some castle nuts myself and drill a hole in one of the castles for a coter pin so they wouldn't back off, not an easy project I was dreading. The loctite never came to mind. I am glad I read these posting everyonce in a while. Loctite will do just a good a job and be much easier. Plus I think I have some in the bottom drawer of the tool box. Thanks again for the tip!
