I may be incorrect, but I recall reading that if you add loctite, then the torque setting will have changed |

As Andy I have never used lock tight on clutch parts, done loads of mini clutches no problem, the problem with the one you bought Mike is was ill fitted on taper and not torqued up tight enough or lock tab not done right.. Main Build
