Diff Axle Shaft Bolts Falling Out... wtf lol

Postby Titties » Mon Jun 09, 2008 9:28 am

Heya,
My left axleshaft that exits my LSD on my altezza is held in by 6 hex drive bolts.
They are loosening all the time, even with thread locker on them.
1st time i checked them, there was only 2bolts left out of the 6.

Does anyone else have this problem???

I'm going to look at drilling the heads and lockwiring them so they can't fall out, but i'm just wondering why they are coming loose to start with.
It's the left side only, the right side is rock solid tight.

Any ideas?

Cheers, Mike
