Good morning-hope everybody had a good weekend.
It would seem as if one of the rights of 914 ownership passages is dealing with self-loosening axle bolts. Will the correct size spring washers from Ace deal with this, or do I need special serrated ones, or do I need to safety wire them? Thanks in advance for the help, have a good morning. |

Pulled one to go make sure I get the right size washers. The split washers on here for apparently useless, and the threads were very greasy

QUOTE(Tdskip @ Oct 15 2018, 06:49 PM)  Pulled one to go make sure I get the right size washers.

I would be ordering some new bolts and probably get the "drilled for safety wire" bolts since I was getting new bolts. You need to be sure the bolts are the correct strength. Jim |
