Seeking ideas on how to keep the rear shock mount bolts tight. They work
loose every 1,500 to 2,000 miles, and tightening them is routine with my
annual maintenance. I currently have grade 8 bolts, nuts and split washers.
Grade 5 bolts, nuts, and split washers were no worse (or better) than the
grade 8. Tried Nord-Lock washers 2 years ago after someone posted about
them on this list. They loosened more quickly than split washers. Tried
thread locker and nylocks as well, neither of which were better than split
washers.
Anyone have a method that actually keeps the hardware tight?
