Want to fit set of BW front studs.

Best way of putting them in? Have read about using loctite. Cool with that.

Ideas of getting them in as tight as possible? Only got the shortest version. Was thinking of getting a standard wheel nut and cutting the radius part off so I just have a big "feck" off nut of right thread/size. Then putting a second nut on with the radius on the outside and using two spanners to lock one nut against the other.

Sound ok?

Alternatively set of narrow/long nose molies has been mentioned but not sure if I would get the purchase on them.

Ideas?


Oh, what grade of loctite?

I double nutted with standard wheel nuts and a spanner / socket combination.

I can't remember what loctite I used but it appears to have worked.

There are various threads on google with details of which loctite to use for which job. They rate strength and application with e.g.'s of which product to use. I used s simple stud lock version with double bolts to wind in.
