Great info here guys. For those who wish to add blue Loctite to the CV bolt threads..... Would applying Loctite to the bolt holes, instead of the bolt threads be of any use? I recall that applying Loctite to the bolt threads, and trying to keep those clean while installing the CV, was a minor PITA. Figured applying the Loctite to the bolt holes would be less of a pain.
