regarding the Loc-Tite brands, use the blue colored stuff (I think it is Loc-Tite 242) for removable bolts, use the red colored Loc-Tite for the non-removable apps. Safety wiring has been used on bot

Anyone who advocates removing the crossmember does not understand the role played by all the components in a closed driveline system. The crossmember not only supports the tranny but stiffens the cha

I agree, however, wiring critical bolts is often a very very good idea. For many closed course race tracks safety wiring is *required* on things such as oil pan bolts, radiator caps, diff drain bolts
