<div class="yiv3725024943MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;">I believe that those bolts have a ground shank of an exact length so that they act as dowel pins. I would use at least a grade 5 nut. If you can’t find locknuts, I don’t see why some red Loctite wouldn’t work. A free driveshaft, whipping around in its tunnel at speed, would probably be a negative experience.</span></div>
