Ditto on the Loctite, I use it wherever there is a bolt going into a rotating/moving item - better safe than sorry!!!
Note that items doused with RED Loctite MUST be heated thoroughly, like with a propane or MAP gas torch, to come loose.
The RED is called "stud & bearing mount". Anybody ever use it on the back of a bearing shell? I suppose you would have to use it quite sparingly so as not to have any squish out & get on the journal or into the oiling groove.
Yep didn't Locktite it.
Have to also check the length to make sure it didn't bottom.
I did tighten it to TSM torque spec.
