Do the CV bolts require lock washers? Locktite? I seem to recall reading about both of these once or twice. None of my CV bolts has any lock washers, and I don't see them in the Bentley, so maybe not? They do have those 'shoulder things' one for every two bolts, but I don't see enough length on the bolts for a lock washer. Should there be loctite on the bolts as well, or instead of, lock washers? Any particular flavor of loctite? Thanks, John |
