[TR] Ring Gear Bolts/Flywheel Bolts

[William Brewer]

     I am preparing to bolt the ring gear onto a newly lightened TR3 flywheel. I am thinking of using the special bolts sold by Moss. My question is: Should I use tab washers to lock the bolts on? I could use lockwashers and Loctite Blue and get better results, I think. Any nuggets of wisdom out there?     Likewise, I have the original flywheel to crankshaft bolts. I could upgrade to the fancy ARP 12 point bolts that Moss sells, but it is probably not necessary on a Standard Vanguard street engine. I think on my last TR3 rebuild I just used lockwashers. Again, Moss sells tab washers to lock it on, but I think that lockwashers and Loctite Blue should be fine. Is the added expense of ARP bolts worth it? Any hidden dangers of re-using the original bolts?     Yesterday my car lift got delivered. I have spend the last 45 years of my life laying underneath cars working. I bought a MaxJax from Costco. It was on sale for $1799 delivered. Took a while to get it though. MaxJax Portable Car Lift - Home Garage Lift - Dannmar - MaxJax USA .
