So me and a friend of mine swapped my truck out to a 17* hpop today, I swapped the sd fittings out for the obs ones I drove home about 45-50 miles and had some oil in the valley, I gave everything a little wiggle and both of the fittings in the hpop are loose.
What do I do?
Should I have loctited em?
TIA
Dan

Yeah my friend put o-rings on maybe they just didnt seat or something thanks for the fast reply. do you think medium strength (red tube blue color) threadlocker would be too much?
thanks Blue, dont have the time or the loctite tonight the orings were shredded, I think the ones we used mightve been too thick. I have an oring tray and picked some out, snug around the shaft of the bolt, not too tight, not real fat, so Im hoping thatll take care of it, if I have to do it again Ill loctite it, ran out of daylight and patience for the day. We'll see what happens.
thanks again
