Self-locking nuts
Is it really necessary or can I just use lock-tite and re-use the nuts? Last edited by thunderX; 01-10-2012 at 10:27 PM. |

I just re-use them. Nothing ever fell off and I have had the front of my 4.4 off 3 times now.

Self-locking nuts- reusable?
That makes sense, thanks for the info.
I plan on doing that also w/ some lock-tite. BMW suggests some crazy stuff sometimes... a new copper gasket w/ each oil change? I do it because it comes in the kit, but C'mon! New brake fluid every 2 years regardless of milage... What's ironic is that they don't recommend replacement of things like hoses and belts after xx,xxx miles. Thanks again. |
